Our peaches are in season Late-May through early September. 

Bite into a South Carolina peach, and you’ll know what summer tastes like.

Growing sweet southern peaches is part of a family tradition that started over 74 years ago. Sink your teeth into a tree-ripened peach and let the juice trickle down your chin. It feeds the body and soothes the soul.
 
Today, James E. Cooley is proud to continue that tradition. Visit our farm June through September and grab a bushel of hand-packed fuzzy peaches, unloaded fresh from the field every hour!  The Cooley family is proud to farm fresh, tree-ripened peaches picked ripe and ready to eat right here in Spartanburg County. We stand behind the notion that South Carolina is the "Tastier Peach State".

We harvest from over 800 acres of peach trees every season, growing nearly 30 different varieties. We grow clingstone peaches that ripen late May through June while the freestones start the first week of July through the remainder of the summer.  

"Kissed by the sun and blessed by nature, this southern fruit burst with flavor."

Our blackberries are in season late June through July. 

It is just a sweet part of summer and at Cooley Farms we grow some of the sweetest, ripe, and juicy blackberries in the south. Our warm, sunny summers provide the perfect growing conditions. 

Indeed, farming is a family affair at Strawberry Hill. James E. Cooley and his Uncle Freddie Buckner work together to harvest over 36 acres of sweet seedless blackberries.

Blackberries are packed with essential nutrients and antioxidant that promote good digestive and bone health.  

Our farm is a GAP Certified grower for blackberries, meaning our “Good Agricultural Practice” entitles us to ship blackberries anywhere in the world. We also sell our blackberries at not only our Shed in Chesnee and in Gaffney, but other farmer's markets in the area.
