We are bringing a
 family tradition

Born in Fort Valley, Georgia, (better known as Peach Country), Michael Sparks has been passionate about peaches from a young age. From the time he was 9 years old and all through high school, he spent his summers working in the peach packing sheds and orchards of the Pearson and Lane farms. Because of his roots, he knows what a good peach should taste like and the care that it requires to ensure quality. That’s what motivated him to bring the peaches that he loves so much to the people he loves. In 2013, he and his wife Kim began bringing Pearson Farm Peaches to Jackson and Brownsville, Tennessee, on a very small scale. Now, in 2022, under the banner of GPC's Peach on Wheels, we are expanding our reach to all of West Tennessee, North Mississippi and Arkansas. We see ourselves as bringing more than a great peach...

Tips for Peeling



- Peaches should be soft & ripe before freezing.

- Peel and slice peaches into a bowl of water mixed with a citric acid powder, making sure to cover the entire slices of peach with the water solution. This will keep peaches from turning brown when they are thawed.

- Drain all water from the peaches before freezing.

- Sugar may be added to the peaches at this point, if desired.

- Pack peaches in freezer bags about 3/4 full.

- Flatten bags and freeze.
