With the start of another Summer season, many of our loyal customers are reaching out as to when we will be offering peaches. We understand this Post is late coming, which isn’t proper, and for that, we apologize. It was delayed because this was a difficult Post to write.

We have always taken great pride in being known for the quality of our Peaches and Apples and offering them at a reasonable price, but after 94 years, we have sadly decided not to offer our Peaches and Apples for retail sale.

In 1997, in an effort to diversify and help cushion the increasing challenges in growing Tree Fruit, we planted our first Vineyard, and with the focus of quality, began growing Grapes for other wineries.

After many years of receiving compliments about our “new” crop, in 2019, we decided to move forward with obtaining a Winery License to progress that aspect of our Farm, using the fruit we grow in producing wines and naming our winery 𝙁𝙧𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙚𝙙 𝙏𝙪𝙧𝙩𝙡𝙚.

Like most continuing businesses and new ventures, the unfortunate period of Covid did impact our ongoing Peach and Apple business, as well as our plans on introducing our Wines.

As a positive, this pause in the World gave us an opportunity to properly produce and age our first production of Wines, wines we are now excited to offer. Joining our Fruit wines will be varietal Red and White wines, wines we are striving to produce that can stand along side other “wine regions.” NJ is becoming known for their Wines, in thanks to the many great wineries throughout the State, and we are very excited to be part of this growing community.

We sadly realize this change in direction of our Farm will impact many of our customers, many of whom are families, going back generations, who have faithfully supported us, and that is what has made this so difficult to sit and type (and eventually click “Post.”)

The annual fears of Spring Frosts and Summer Storms, or the longest of work days, were always softened by the connection we had through the smiles and chats with our customers, many of whom became our friends. The positivity we have received from fruit customers who are now returning for our Wines has been an inspiration. We truly hope many will still reach out to us as we progress with our Wine venture.

We are very excited about this next chapter of our Farm and have been working very hard towards it. We promise to Post our progress in the very near future. (We have been asked, and yes, we are continuing to farm all of our ground. )

We truly hope we have the opportunity to continue our relationships with many of you, along with introducing ourselves to those who have never visited us.

Thank you so much.

We are very excited to have well known local chef Kate Lairson here at Sunny Slope tomorrow (Saturday August 13th, 2022) selling her delicious creations from her 𝗕𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗕𝗶𝗿𝗱 𝗟𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗕𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝗽 … while her supplies last!!

Kate created her Farm to Fork Bake Shop with the mission of searching out fresh ingredients grown and raised locally in New Jersey when crafting her offerings … and has extended that mission to include the source farm or ranch by selling her items at their location … promoting local … all while growing her fan base with every first bite. 😋

Kate is featuring all things Peach tomorrow … with tasty treats such as:
Peach Hand Pies
Peach Cobbler
Brown ButterPeach Blondies
Gluten Free Peach Bellini Cookies
Blueberry Lavender Peach Pound Cake
Peach Cobbler Pound Cake
Greenwich Tea Burner's Peach Bellini Iced Tea.

Visit with Kate under her tent here in our parking lot beginning at 9 am … until as the famous saying goes … “while supplies last.” 🍑🌱🙂

As with many seasonal businesses, High School students often find their first job here. We have been fortunate to have so many great teenagers through the years. It is always heartwarming to keep in touch and hear what they have accomplished. So many great stories!

We are so proud of two young adults who have decided to utilize their passion and talents (and strength) to open their own businesses right here in the Bridgeton area.

We wish Annie and Matt much success and happiness. (Please add their businesses to your Shop Local list if you haven’t done so already! :) )

Back in March, Mother Nature ushered in what would be a challenging year for those of us trying to have a green thumb.

Little did we realize at the time the challenges we all would experience as this year progressed.

We want to thank our customers for your support and understanding with our Peach and Apple Seasons this year … all while navigating the changes to your routine life.

Thank you also for the positive response to our Frightened Turtle Wine venture. The feedback was truly a bright spot for us this year.

We know we join everyone in offering our best wishes for a Happier … and Healthier 2021!
