Get your fresh Georgia peaches: Trendy food truck coming to Dayton

A popular Nashville food truck that sells fresh peaches from Georgia is making its way to the Dayton region.

The Peach Truck takes the food truck idea and puts a healthy, Southern twist on it — offering fresh, juicy peaches from Georgia. The truck will visit parts of Cincinnati, Dayton and Columbus this summer.

The Peach Truck idea came about when founder Stephen Rose moved to Nashville in 2010 and discovered no one sold fresh, flavorful peaches like the kind he’d grown up eating in Georgia. Two years later, he and his wife Jessica made a trip back to Rose’s hometown farm and started selling peaches out of the back of a ‘64 Jeep truck.

A 25-pound box of Georgia Peaches is $40 and the truck’s pecans are $13 per pound. The truck prefers debit and credit cards.
