Mountain West Peach Orchards
Mountain west peach growing concentrates in a handful of well-irrigated valleys where intense high-altitude sun and dramatic day-to-night temperature swings combine to produce remarkably flavorful fruit. Colorado's Palisade peaches, grown on the Western Slope's Grand Valley, are the region's signature crop and the centerpiece of an annual festival each August, while Utah County's orchards along the Wasatch Range and New Mexico's Rio Grande Valley farms each carry on their own smaller but well-loved peach traditions.
Best Time for Peach Picking in Idaho
Late July through August, shorter than warmer states but reliable in the irrigated valleys of the southwest.
