Peach is the Summer fruit of the Peach Tree and, together with the Pomegranate, the most valuable fruit from any tree sold in Pierre's General Store. The sapling is among the dearest in the shop, but a mature tree pays it back with a valuable fruit every day of Summer. Robin loves Peaches, and the rest of the valley likes them, so the fruit is as good for friendship as it is for money. A Peach can fill a slot in the Artisan Bundle in the Pantry. In a Keg it becomes Peach Wine, one of the best-paying fruit wines a valley orchard can make.

The in-game description reads: It's almost fuzzy to the touch.

Growing

Peaches grow on the Peach Tree. Pierre's General Store sells Peach Saplings, and the Traveling Cart sometimes stocks them at a varying price. A Peach Sapling needs a clear square of ground around it and four weeks to mature. Planting it by the first day of Spring means the tree fruits from the first day of Summer. A sapling bought later in the first year usually means waiting until the second Summer for the first Peach.

A mature tree grows one Peach each day of Summer. The fruit can wait on the branches for up to three days. Anything still hanging on the last day of Summer is lost.

The tree improves with age. Its first year gives normal Peaches. Each later year adds one level of quality, until the tree grows iridium Peaches.

A Peach Tree in the Greenhouse or on Ginger Island fruits every day of the year. For a high-value fruit like the Peach, that turns one tree into a steady year-round earner.

Lightning can strike a fruit tree during a storm. A struck tree grows coal instead of fruit for a few days.

The fruit bats in the farm cave can also leave Peaches overnight, in any season.

Prices

A raw Peach sells for the same price as a Pomegranate and more than any other fruit from Pierre's saplings. Only the island Banana is worth more.

Putting a Peach in a Keg makes Peach Wine after about a week, worth three times the fruit. Putting one in a Preserves Jar makes Peach Jelly in two to three days. With a fruit this valuable, wine earns clearly more per Peach. Jelly still finishes sooner, so jars help when Kegs are full.

Ageing Peach Wine in a Cask can double its value at iridium quality. That makes the Peach a strong choice for a cellar full of Casks.

The Artisan profession lifts Peach wine and Peach jelly by forty percent each.

The Dehydrator turns five Peaches into one pack of Dried Fruit by the next day. The pack is worth more than the five raw Peaches, but much less than five bottles of wine.

The quality of the fruit has no effect on wine or jelly. When Kegs are short, process the normal Peaches first and sell the gold and iridium ones raw.

Sell prices by quality, with the bonus from each profession.

Uses

The Pantry's Artisan Bundle accepts any six picks from a list of fruit and artisan goods. A Peach is one of the options, and completing the bundle rewards a Keg.

At the dye pots in Emily and Haley's house, a Peach counts as a red dye.

The Community Center asks for Peach in these bundles.

Gifts

Robin loves Peaches.

Abigail, Alex, Caroline, Clint, Demetrius, the Dwarf, Elliott, Emily, Evelyn, George, Gus, Haley, Harvey, Jas, Jodi, Kent, Krobus, Leah, Leo, Lewis, Linus, Marnie, Maru, Pam, Penny, Pierre, Sam, Sandy, Sebastian, Shane, Vincent, Willy and the Wizard like them.

Robin's birthday is on the twenty-first of Fall, after the Peach season has ended outdoors. Keep a Peach in a chest from Summer, or pick one from a Greenhouse tree. A loved gift on her birthday gives a much bigger friendship boost than usual.

For the rest of the town, a Peach is a safe gift. Abigail, Haley, Jas and Vincent dislike tropical fruit such as the Mango, but all of them like a Peach.

These villagers love receiving Peach as a gift.

Notes

The Peach Tree costs more than most saplings, so it pays off slowly as raw fruit. Turning the harvest into wine shortens that wait a great deal.

Peach and Pomegranate share the top price among the trees in Pierre's General Store. Planting both covers Summer and Fall with the same high-value fruit.
