Summer at Terhune Orchards means peaches! The farm grows over 28 varieties and will celebrate “everything peachy” on the last weekend in July.

Activities include tractor-drawn wagon rides through the orchards, pony rides, face painting, and more. Also, Live country music will have the whole family dancing along every day from noon to 4 p.m. 

A special feature of this year’s festival is the “Summer Harvest Farm-to-Fork Tasting” each day from noon to 4 p.m. Talented chefs from the area will use peaches and produce from Terhune Orchards to prepare creative peach recipes for visitors to sample. This special tasting is $12 per person.

On Saturday, July 30, Pam Mount will give her annual free canning and freezing class from 10 a.m. to noon. Learn the secret to preserving farm fresh fruit now in order to enjoy all year long. Register for Pam’s free canning and freezing class online: terhuneorchards.com/class-sign-up/ or call the farm store at (609) 924-2310.

Savor pies, cobblers, and muffins all made from perfectly ripe peaches from the farm. Other tasty summer fare such as barbecued pork and chicken, hot dogs, homemade gazpacho, salads, apple cider donuts, and cider slushies will be available.
