Juicy Peaches Meet Small-Town Charm and Big-Time Fun
The 2025 Georgia Peach Festival will be a celebration of the season’s harvest in Peach County. It will also be an appreciation of the local farmers who grow these delicious fruits for all to enjoy.
The festival will feature a wide variety of peach-themed dishes, all made from locally grown peaches. Delicious peach pies, cobblers, jams, and preserves will be available to buy and taste at the festival. There will also be a farmer’s market at the festival, which will offer other locally grown produce.
Visitors of the festival will also be able to enjoy vibrant parades, live music, fair rides, a variety of food options, and beautiful handcrafted goods. A wide variety of fun and games will lure in festival goers.
Featuring the Largest Peach Cobbler
One of the most attractive features of the festival is the peach cobbler that is prepared every year and served for free to all attendees. Prepared in the eleven-by-five-foot vat that is eight inches deep, this peach cobbler is the world’s largest.
Obviously, a massive amount of ingredients go into making this cobbler – 75 gallons of peaches, 90 pounds of butter, 32 gallons of milk, and 150 pounds of sugar, to be exact. It takes a team one whole night to prepare this massive dish, and it is one of the highlights of the festival.
Peach County – Home to the World’s Heaviest Peach
The world’s largest peach was found in Peach County back in 2018. The Guinness-certified peach, which weighed 1 lb 12 oz, was grown at Pearson Farms in Fort Valley. This achievement made Peach County a star location in the industry.
More details and the schedule of the 2025 Georgia Peach Festival will be announced soon on the official website. Those who plan to attend this festival can expect an amazing set of experiences, flavors, and vibes.
