Business Detailed:  Our primary crop is peaches, peaches, peaches! Everyone wants their fruit to taste good, but exactly what does that mean. Peaches that stay on the tree longer develop higher sugar (or Brix) and therefore make sweeter, jucier, more flavorful peaches. Peaches picked too green will never have the sweetness, full flavor and juciness we all want in a peach. The orchard was planted in 1992 and 1993 by Dave and Shelly Hancock, third generation farmers in the Cortez area, as part of their efforts to diversify their existing farm operations. They researched 10 years of weather information available on records kept at the Colorado State University Yellowjacket agricultural experiment station, as well as relying on their own experience of farming the orchard area land for many years.
