Nectarines are not a hybrid fruit, they are peaches that lack the gene for fuzz! Every so often a nectarine can be spotted growing naturally on one of our peach trees. Though they're peaches in disguise, nectarines are regarded commercially as different fruits and the lack of fuzz can make for a very different eating experience. As with peaches, nectarines can be white or yellow, clingstone or freestone. On average, they're slightly smaller and sweeter than their cousins and their lack of fuzz can make their skins appear more reddish. The nectarine's deeper, sometimes almost purple coloration contributed to a mistaken belief that they are hybrids of peaches and plums. We grow seven yellow-fleshed varieties and two white-fleshed varieties that are typically harvested from mid-June to early September.

    Our regenerative organic practices not only produce great fruit, but they also provide important ecosystem and climate benefits. We build soil health by composting, planting cover crops, and not tilling. The soil contains thriving communities of beneficial microbes and fungi that fertilize our trees. And we are fighting climate change by building the carbon storage capacity of our soil. Our orchards store an average of 29 tons of carbon per acre – that’s the equivalent of taking 1,488 passenger vehicles off the road for one year!

    • We ship nationwide via UPS Gold Standard Carbon Neutral Shipping
    • For fresh fruit and perishable items we aim for your shipment to spend no more than 2 days in transit. Due to this, items may not ship over the weekend. See shipping at checkout for estimated delivery date.
    • UPS does not ship to PO boxes

    Our promise to you: if your order doesn't arrive fresh and if you or your recipients aren't delighted, we'll make it right.

    "Stellar Nectarines"

    "I love nectarines and am very particular about them. The ones I received from Frog Hollow Farm were just about perfect- just ripe, giving slightly to a gentle press, tangy and sweet in the right balance."

    Good but…

    I was so excited when I found Frog Hollow but I really need to watch what I order or stop ordering all together. In the past year or two, I have not received one shipment that isn’t damaged or contain a way past prime piece of fruit. I pay a lot for shipping so it’s making less and less sense.
