The
Georgia Peach Truck visited Gilbertie's Garden Center in Westport Tuesday.
The
truck makes stops all along the East Coast to offer fresh peaches.
Truck
driver Mikey Collins said the peaches were picked just a few days ago.
"These
coming straight out of the packing house at Dickey Farms and into one of our
refrigerated trucks until it gets to these canopies, that nice, cool, steady
temperature has a huge impact on the freshness, and the flavor and texture of
the peaches," Collins explained.
The Georgia
Peach Truck will be back in Connecticut on July 20.
