It's Time to Pick Peaches at Eckert's Orchards

Wednesday July 23, 2008

Peach pie, peach cobbler, peach jam. Fresh homegrown peaches are one of the things to look forward to every summer. Beginning this Saturday, you can pick your own peaches at Eckert's Orchards in Belleville. Grab a pound or two and make your favorite recipe, or let Eckert's do the work for you and pick up a pie or cobbler at the Country Store. Fresh blackberries are also in season. You can find them all at the Eckert's locations in Belleville and Grafton.
