Rowe’s Peaches
Rowe's peaches was founded in 1953 by Robert Rowe. Robert was the owner of the Red & White Grocery in DeRuyter NY.
Robert began getting peaches from the Seneca lake area, but after a few years realized the quality of peaches coming from that area was inconsistent. In 1961 he begin getting his fruit from PA, just outside of Gettysburg. In the mid-80's he developed a relationship with a Mennonite grower in the Biglerville area, and we have been working with the same family ever since.
Robert passed away in 2014, and Rowe's Peaches is now run by his eldest son, Charles. Charles and the family continue to work with the same farmers, using the same care to transport, store and sort through the fruit before we present it to you for sale.
