The Pearson family has been growing peaches and pecans on the same Georgia land as our great-great grandparents for over 130 years. Here at Pearson Farm traditional American southern hospitality and honest values have been the guiding principles of our family farm for five generations.
Pearson Farm is located in Fort Valley, GA, 100 miles south of Atlanta in Peach County and has been growing peaches since the 1890's. The farm follows sustainable farming practices to keep pesticide use to a minimum and is also preserving portions of the farm to balance the natural state of the land. Due to the warmer temperatures and abundance of pests in central Georgia, combined with decaying fruit, pest control becomes a necessary component of producing edible peaches. The farm inspects areas of the farm for pests to determine if a section requires spraying (they "scout" the fields prior to any application). Scouting is expensive but the cost is outweighed by less pesticide application. Additionally, ground cover throughout the year lowers the risk of pests. Pearson Farm welcomes natural occurring pests that feed on the bad bugs. In the winter, trimmings from the peach trees are left on the ground to become compost, which helps to grow the trees in a more natural state.
Pearson Farm is ~100 miles from Atlanta and our peaches are transported directly to markets without any long term storage, core-cooling, or waxing.
Reduce your "food print" and buy regional! Also, buying GA peaches supports the local economy and that makes us all feel peachy!
