Currently, tickets to the orchard are $4 per person and the price of peaches will be $3.50 a pound. Yellow plums will be $5 per pound.
The orchard warns that everything is dependent on the weather and demand, so there are no guarantees on any given day.
However, you can call in advance before you head down to pick your own peaches. The orchard is open every day of the week, but hours vary depending on how many people visit and how much fruit is picked each day.
