Peach Delivery To Franklin: See When Company Plans To Visit

FRANKLIN, WI — As warmer weather dawns on Wisconsin and the summer seems to be near, trucks will soon be transporting bushels of peaches from the south to sell across the Milwaukee area, including Franklin.

One company that touts its peaches as the "juiciest, sweetest and freshest Georgia peaches possible" is Tree-Ripe Fruit Co. The business started bringing fruit up to Wisconsin each summer in the '90s, and the tradition has continued to 2022, according to the company's website.

Tree-Ripe plans to make stops in and around Franklin starting in June and continuing until August.

The peaches are from Pearson Farm, a 1400-acre grove of peach trees in Georgia, according to Tree-Ripe's website.

When the truck's come to town, you'll be able to get a 1/2 bushel case of peaches, about 25 pounds, for $45, according to Tree-Ripe. Other fruits such as blueberries from Michigan are also expected to join the trucks at certain points in the summer.

Here's when Tree-Ripe is scheduled to visit Franklin in 2022:

• June 28, 9-10:30 a.m., Garden Plaza, 6516 South Lovers Lane Road.
• July 26, 9-10:30 a.m., Garden Plaza, 6516 South Lovers Lane Road.
