Welcome to the Sunny Slope Orchards website!
Here at Sunny Slope, we are a family-owned business in Bridgeton, New Jersey that has grown from 20 to over 800 acres in 80 plus years. We grow peaches and nectarines that are mainly shipped commercially, but we also have a small retail market at the entrance of the farm's packing house where the peaches and nectarines are sold. Apples are grown as well and sold at the farm's market, along with our custom-blended cider.
Now that winter is here, it brings to a close another peach and apple season. Despite the occasional heavy rains and wind storms this summer, we were fortunate to have good quality fruit this season . The cool fall weather really provided us with some of the best tasting Staymen we think we ever had.
A big thanks goes to everyone involved: Tony, Ron, Dave, Reyes, Jasmine, Jon, Jeremy, Rita, Tara, all the kids who helped out in the packing house this summer, and Bucky for keeping the equipment running. No thanks is complete without mentioning Lauren and her efforts with this website.
Thank you to our customers. We hope you were able to enjoy some of our peaches this past year, whether from your local supermarket or our own retail stand.
If you made the trip out to our stand for our apples and cider this fall, we truly appreciate your patronage.
We hope Mother Nature provides us with favorable conditions through the rest of the winter and into the spring. We will keep you posted on how things are going out in the orchards.
Thank you for stopping by our website.
