The Town of Fountain Hills is announcing the annual, limited Peach Market will return for its fifth year on From 8 to 11:30 a.m. through Saturday, Sept. 27 at the Tractor Supply Company, 17130 E. Shea Blvd., and will feature tree-ripened Freestone Peaches sourced directly from mountain farms in Utah, known for their exceptional quality and variety.
Additionally, on Saturday, Sept. 20, the market will host a Children’s Entrepreneur Market, where young vendors ages 5–16 will sell handmade or home-baked goods.
The annual series stems from a partnership with Fountain Hills Farmers Markets’ manager Betsy Hess and Yvonne Turley, known as the “Arizona Fruit Lady,” who, along with her family, will deliver fresh peaches, tomatoes, nectarines, and pears weekly via refrigerated truck.
“What makes the Fountain Hills Peach Market so special is the freshness and flavor of our peaches, picked ripe from Utah mountain farms and delivered straight to our community each week,” Ms. Hess said. “Whether you’re biting into one with juice running down your chin or discovering new peach-inspired treats from our amazing vendors, it’s a celebration of summer you won’t want to miss.”
This year’s vendors, who will feature peach-inspired delicacies, include:
• Wiki-licious Donuts
• Yvonella
• The Bomb Pie Company
• Lori’s Lunchbox
• 3D Salsa
