Welcome to Verhey’s Peaches & Royal Canning Company

Verhey’s have grown Peaches & Nectarines
in Royal City, Washington since 1967. Dan and Sheila Verhey planted the trees and raised 7 kids on the farm. Now their daughter, Heather and her daughter, McDarra do the heavy lifting. Their peach varieties include freestone peaches: Delp-Hale, Elberta, and Elegant Lady. Nectarines include the elusive White nectarine as well as a number of yellow nectarines. Verhey’s offer one of the only U-Pick experiences in the state. If you haven’t picked a peach right off the tree, its time you did! Join us in the orchard! Harvest starts in early August and runs through mid-September.

Decades of Ripe, Juicy Peaches!

For more than 50 years, the land we have known as Verhey’s Peaches has supported the cultivation of authentic Washington-grown peaches and nectarines, as well as the growth of more than 3 generations of family farming that pioneered it.

The core elements remain the same today —
good soil, hard work, honest relationships, and family.
