Peach Picking in Georgia | 10K Road Trip Vlog Day 25
We drove over to Georgia to pick peaches at the Southern Belle Farm and those peaches were everything we hoped they'd be.
This is Day 25 of our 10,000 mile road trip across the US.
Apparently, peach picking is not as popular in Georgia as we thought it'd be. It's not like apple picking in the Northeast. But we found a farm that allowed us to pick our own peaches about 30 minutes from Atlanta and we went for it. Only $10 for a half peck!
Check out the farm here (not sponsored, but we loved our experience there so you should definitely check them out):

What's going on here?
We quit our jobs, left New York City, bought a car, and decided to spend the summer driving around the US. The plan is to hit at least 35 states and cover more than 10,000 miles. Watch from the beginning here:

Pure Flavor, New Branding and New Georgia Facility, SEPC Southern Exposure, 2018
LEAMINGTON, ON – Pure Flavor® has been a big name in our industry for years, and the greenhouse grower’s recent rebranding effort is extending that notoriety to the general public, helping shoppers better recognize the high-quality produce Pure Flavor produces, and driving sales in produce departments.
I recently spoke with Chris Veillon, Chief Marketing Officer, at SEPC’s Southern Exposure to learn more about the company’s new packaging, promotions, initiatives, and expansions.
“We’ve worked for the last six months developing a packaging strategy that will differentiate us on store shelves but also connect us with consumers,” Chris noted. “The way the packaging has been designed, there are core brand elements in each one—everything from color right down to font style.”
The newly-rebranded line will be completed this Spring, Chris told me, along with a complete overhaul of sales materials, social media channels, and a new website.
Additionally, the company is making headway on its recently-announced expansion into Georgia—with its first phase to be completed in time for PMA Fresh Summit 2018.
“We broke ground on a 75-acre facility in Fort Valley, Georgia, which will grow tomatoes and cucumbers,” Chris said. “25 acres will be completed by October of this year, with a total of 75 being done over the next 12 years.”
For more, watch our video interview in its entirety above.

My Trip To The Farm
My trip to Fort Valley to pick up some peaches for the local Atlanta farmers markets. I always enjoy going down to Pearson Farm and getting to experience how the peach business works. The folks down here really work hard to grow, pack, and distribute their awesome peaches. Much love to Pearson Farm and their peaches.
