When traveling on US-19E toward Roan Mountain during this time of summer, it’s hard not to notice a little produce stand on the side of the road that is stocked with basket after basket of South Carolina Freestone peaches.
The Freestone peach is loved because when eating the flesh of the fruit it will easily come loose from its seed making it a great peach to make jams and jellies, home-made ice cream, pies, and fresh cobblers with during the hot days of summer.
With the growing season of the South Carolina peach coming to an end near Labor Day, there are only a few days left to take advantage of the tasty fruit.
Also, when customers stop by the market they will find fresh produce such as half-runner green beans, green peppers, onions, potatoes, tomatoes, apples, watermelon and honeydew melon to purchase as well.
If one loves pickled eggs, those are also available even in Jalapeno-flavored pickled eggs. Also, honey along with various other canned products can be found along with walnuts and pecans for baking.
Davis Girls Peach Shed is opened Monday through Saturday from 9 am to 6 pm and are closed on Sunday.
