About peaches and Frog Hollow Farm –
Native to China, peaches of legend conferred immortality and were treasured by ancient Emperors. In the early 17th century a horticulturist by the name of George Minifie is said to have brought the first peaches from England to the United States, planting peach trees at his Estate of Buckland in Virginia. Peaches now grow throughout the world's temperate regions, but find a uniquely-suited home in Brentwood, California's Mediterranean climate. Frog Hollow Farm grows more than twelve varieties of organic peaches that have been selected by the owner, Farmer Al, for the quality of their taste and flavor, and not just for cosmetics, for those who order peaches for delivery. They typically harvest from mid-June to early September.
