Texas Peach Season Update

April 24, 2023 Peach Season Update. When are peaches in season?

Is it peach season in Texas? The early crop for peaches will begin by May 12, 2023 according to Texaspeaches.com

A lot of people will wait till later to enjoy them because as they say, the more sunlight a fruit gets, the sweeter the fruit! Well, that’s actually true. But if we take a cue from the droughts that we’ve been having, the best time for peaches this season would be from May to mid-June.

The drought and lack of sufficient winter chill has left many members of the Hill Country Fruit Council with about a 25% crop. Yes, 25%. That’s 1/4 of the expected crop and that means a limited supply of peaches for the 2023 season.
