Can you believe it's September?  School children are getting back into a routine, the days are a little shorter, and it even feels like fall!  This is a great weekend to visit your local orchards!  Read on for more information......
Chiles Peach Orchard
Bumper Peach Crop
The last of the peaches are ripe, and you can still pick your own for a few more days.   Come enjoy this summer treasure!  Pick Your Own, while they last, or get them ready-picked for your convenience.
 
We're still making peach milkshakes, peach sundaes, and we've got plenty of your favorite peach frozen yogurt!  Both peach and apple pies will be coming out of the oven every day, and our wonderful donuts, too! 
 
We will have peaches available for sale til they are all gone, and, fresh apples are here!  Come by for some ready-picked Gala (a sweet, crunchy apple) and Ginger Gold (great to eat or cook).  Apple picking at Chiles Peach Orchard will begin soon -  we'll have Fuji and Granny Smith for you to pick.  
 
Our Bumper Peach Croppumpkin patch will open in early October, so plan to come pick your own pumpkin this year!
