The Peach Truck tour is a favorite part of summer for fruit fans, and the Nashville-based operation will again be making its way to the Greater Cincinnati area this summer.
Stephen Rose and his wife, Jessica, will be bringing farm-fresh Georgia peaches to stops at 25 states across the United States, including Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Pennsylvania, New York, Connecticut, Michigan, Texas, Florida and Louisiana.
All stops feature online pre-ordering — that means no standing in giant lines, clustered together. Reserve your pick-up date online for your order and you’ll receive a confirmation email.

If you don’t feel like leaving the house to get your peach and pecan fix, you can also have your order delivered straight to your door. Their online store includes a little more to choose from, including peach jams, a cookbook, giftcards, pecan varieties and subscription boxes.
