The 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 his hometown farm and started selling peaches out of the back of a ‘64 Jeep truck. The Peach Truck became so popular that their products are now available in over 60 booths across Nashville, on 25 state tours and delivered via nationwide shipping.
The Peach Truck will make several stops this summer around the Dayton region including Beavercreek, Dayton, Hamilton, Huber Heights, Lebanon, Liberty Twp., Mason, Miami Twp., Middletown, Springfield, Tipp City and Xenia.
“If you are an original Peach Trucker, you’re going to notice a change this year,” the Peach Truck website stated. “We’re excited to introduce a new box! This box includes 10lbs of the freshest, most delicious peaches you have ever had.”
The truck previously offered 25lb boxes, but due to a limited crop, they wanted to make sure they were able to deliver as many boxes as possible. There are no limits on the number of boxes you can order, according to the website. A 10lb box of peaches is $38.
Dayton.com was previously told pre-orders typically close five days before the tour stop. Walk-ups are welcomed at many of the stops this weekend.
If you’d rather avoid the crowds, you can have a box (or two) of these famous peaches shipped right to your home. Browse through a number of home delivery options on The Peach Truck’s website.
