Nothing says warm weather quite like fresh, juicy peaches. If you are a fan of this fruit, you are in for a serious treat.
Harbes Farm & Vineyard is bringing back its beloved Annual Peach Festival on Saturday, August 8 and Sunday, August 9, 2026. Running from 9 am to 7 pm both days, this fun-filled weekend celebration honors their very own freshly picked peaches.
Mouthwatering treats and a historic wine barn
You definitely will not want to miss the food at this festival. Prepare your tastebuds for a massive selection of homemade ice cream, featuring their signature peach flavor. You can also grab delicious tomato and mozzarella paninis, bite into Harbes’ own roasted sweet corn, and discover plenty of other peach-themed surprises.
If you are looking to unwind, the Harbes Wine Barn is a literal dream. Located right behind the main farmstand in a 100-year-old renovated potato barn, they offer tastings of their award-winning wines by the glass or bottle. You can enjoy the rustic indoor ambiance, or sip your drink outside under a patio umbrella.
Peach eating contests and family fun
Ready for a little friendly competition? The famous Peach Eating Contests will take place at 2:30 pm and 4:30 pm on both Saturday and Sunday. They are held inside the Barnyard Adventure, and participation is strictly first come, first served.
Speaking of the Harbes Barnyard Adventure, this 8-acre family-friendly space guarantees hours of entertainment. Your admission includes a Musical Hayride tour across the 100-acre farm, their famous pig races, and a visit with the farm animals. Kids can burn off energy on the “Jumbo Jumpers” bounce pillows, explore the hedge maze, or check out the brand-new attractions debuting for this season.
To top it all off, you can kick back and enjoy free live music in the courtyard and picnic area from 1 pm to 5 pm all weekend long.
