VOPeaches are one of America’s most recognizable fruits. In the US, hundreds of thousands of tons are produced each year, and the fruit is closely tied to one place in particular: Georgia.
The Georgia peach is on license plates, road signs, and even county names. But today, the state doesn’t grow the most peaches — not even close.
