Half-Price Sale on Peaches

Oleo Farm is having a wonderful season with great-tasting peaches. The Sentinel and Red Globe were some of the first to ripen. People have enjoyed gathering the larger peaches, and we still have smaller ones on the tree, which we feel can be offered to you at half price, which is $1.00 a pound. The quality of the small peaches equals that of the larger ones and they are even sweeter, due to the fact that they have remained on the tree longer. We are offering the small peaches at half-price this Saturday, July 11, all day, and Sunday, July 12, 12 pm to 4 pm. We are now gathering the Bounty peach, which is a large peach with great taste. It is a freestone peach.

Jim will be getting a load of cantaloupe on Wednesday, July 8, but they go very fast as they are very good and sweet. Hopefully our own cantaloupe will be coming off in a couple of weeks.

We thank you for patronizing us. We are enjoying having people come to the farm from all over the metroplex area due to the lack of peaches in Fredericksburg and Weatherford.
