The fifth edition of the annual Peach Market comes to Fountain Hills on Aug. 23, running for six Saturdays, through Sept. 27, featuring about 3,000 pounds of fresh peaches trucked down each week from Utah in a refrigerated semi by “Arizona Fruit Lady” Yvonne Turley.
Each week, in addition to the thousands of pounds of freestone peaches, vendors will be selling peach banana bread, peach cinnamon rolls, peach smoothies, peach danishes, peach cobbler, peach doughnuts and even barbecue with peach bourbon barbecue sauce.
The event is held in the parking lot of Tractor Supply Co. from 8 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., but “Don’t come late,” organizer Betsy Hess warns. “Because, even though they will bring like 3,000 pounds of peaches… they do sell out every market.”…
