Tevepaugh Orchards
Peaches steal the show at Tevepaugh Orchards, perched high in the North Carolina mountains of Moravian Falls, where the on-site farm stand feeds your day with fruit and more. Donut peaches steal the spotlight this early July week, juicy and shining with summer. The stand isn't just about fruit: jars of jellies and jams, pickled beets, and local honey sit alongside apples and pumpkins as the seasons roll in. Folks also swing by for fall apples and a non-alcoholic apple and peach cider, plus the occasional peach slushie to cool off after the drive. You can wander the lane to sample peaches straight from the tree and chat with a warm, family crew who make you feel like a regular. The orchard has built a reputation on honest, high-quality fruit and seasonal extras produced on or near the farm, like honey and preserves. Moravian Falls is worth a day trip for the scenery and the fruit in North Carolina; Tevepaugh Orchards is the kind of place that makes you plan your next visit before you leave.
