National Peach Month is a chance to embrace your love of all things sweet and peachy — and even as the celebration draws to a close, there are plenty of ways to honor your favorite fruit all year long. Here are some fun activities to enjoy, inspired by your family at Peach Valley Port Orange.

Grow A Peach Tree

If you want to enjoy homegrown peaches whenever the cravings call, a peach tree might be just what you need! Granted, a peach tree does take an average of three to four years to grow — but in the meantime, as you wait to see the (literal) fruits of your labor, you can have fun watching it grow and bloom into a beautiful part of your backyard.

Dig In With Delicious Peachy Picks

Now if you’re hankering for something a little more immediate, Peach Valley Port Orange has you covered! Our menu is chock-full of peachy favorites that just so happen to pair perfectly with the warm, sunny days of late summer. Sweet or savory, light or hearty and totally satisfying, there’s something for every craving. A few favorites include…

• Housemade Peach Cobbler, a warm, comforting treat made even sweeter with a scoop of vanilla ice cream
• Peaches & Cream Muffin, perfect for wholesome on-the-go goodness (and available griddled for added texture!)
• Peach Valley Picker’s Skillet, a hearty start to your day that comes alive with the addition of our very own Onion & Peach Pepper Sauce

Add A Peachy Splash Of Color To Your Living Space

The super-powered stone fruit is as beautiful as it is delicious — so why not bring its characteristic, cheery hue into your home? Peach works great as a bright yet soothing color option in bedrooms, kitchens, bathrooms — you name it. If you don’t want to commit to a total room color change just yet, a peach-colored door or accent wall might be just what you need. Either way, prepare for your space to feel warmer and more welcoming than ever!

Plus, this color pairs beautifully with the laidback, coastal vibes of Port Orange and Volusia County.

Enjoy Peachy Pairings At Home

Did you know that you can bring home a bottle of our Onion & Peach Pepper Sauce? It works deliciously atop savory meals like colorful breakfast hashes, chicken and waffles, and just about anything else you can cook up in the kitchen. Other DIY peachy pairings include peach and arugula in a vibrant summer salad; a delicious peachy parfait; or peach and brie on a crispy grilled cheese sandwich. Or, for another approach, you can also use peach as part of a homemade spa-style scrub!

Learn About The Benefits Of This Fuzzy Fruit

For as delicious as peaches are, it’s almost easy to forget that they’re good for you too! Really good. Peaches pack fiber for digestion and a surprising amount of vitamin C, too! As it turns out, oranges aren’t the only fruit to deliver a serious serving of this nutritious building block.

Whether you’re growing a tree, adding a splash of color, or simply digging into something delicious, we hope that these ideas help you add peachy flair to your life!
