Remember when you used to wait every summer with anticipation to sink your teeth into a sweet, juicy, fragrant, sun-ripened peach and the juice would run down your chin? Well, get ready to relive that great taste of the ol’ days! |

Thanks to our grower partners, the best, sweetest peaches are Peach-O-Rama peaches. Good watering, care in the sun, and longer than normal time on the tree means the best quality peach with the famous sweetness and succulent texture.
Ever wonder what sets an average grocery store peach from a Peach-O-Rama peach? Brix! Each day we measure Brix, or sugar levels, in our Peach-O-Rama peaches (using a tool called a refractometer). The higher the Brix level, the more flavorful, aromatic, sweeter and juicier the peach. Our minimum standard rating is 13 and many of our peaches are rated up to 18 or higher, while chain stores often sell peaches 11 or under. So each day, look for our Brix ratings as your personal guarantee of sweetness! Hand-picked and packed on the farm, boxed in single layers for the ultimate care and bruise free peaches. |

Author Ari Weinzweig guides you on a personal tour of bacon’s long and curious history. You’ll find out why bacon is “the olive oil of America.” You’ll travel from medieval England, where bacon was used to promote matrimonial harmony. You’ll head to the farm and learn about 19th-century drovers who were crucial to the hog trade.
