Pre-Order. Expected to ship Summer 2024. Shipping included.

Contrary to popular belief, nectarines are not a hybrid fruit. Instead, 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. Summer is the season for nectarines, which makes this a great snack for all kinds of outdoor activities as well as lazy days at home.

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 of nectarines. Farm employees pick each one by hand, and these fruits are harvested at the peak of nectarine season, which typically falls between mid-June and early September. Order from Frog Hollow Farm to have these fruits delivered to you or your loved ones.

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.

People Love Us

"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."
