The history of the business dates back to 1928, when Ruben J. Fisher and his wife Annie settled near Greer and started their own peach orchard. They navigated the Great Depression through strong family values and community spirit. Their sons Charles and Tommy took over the family business in 1969. The shift to direct local sales began in 1968 after a local cannery incident, leading the family to advertise for customers to pick their own peaches, a practice that was new to the area. Today, the Fishers sell approximately 50 different peach varieties across their three Greer locations, maintaining the core values that established the Fisher name as a recognized leader in peach farming in Upstate SC.
