Timberville Peach Market Faces Low Prices and Packing Plans
Peach grower Mr. Bowman reports crate prices around 75 cents, far below last year’s $2 per crate, amid smaller fruit due to a long dry spell. Florida packers, led by C. C. Hull and colleagues, oversee careful packing to reduce bruising, with crates holding 414 to 204 peaches. Timberville’s peach activity draws visitors from Winchester, Frederick, Shenandoah, and Rockingham counties as local orchards expand under the American Fruit Growers contracts.
