Century-old North Georgia market famous for peach ice cream, fried pies, and sprawling u-pick weekends.
Jaemor Farms in Alto, Georgia (in Banks County, about an hour northeast of Atlanta) is a major regional agritourism destination — peaches (May-July, the marquee Georgia crop), strawberries (April-May), blackberries (June), apples (August-October), and pumpkins (October). The farm market sells fresh produce, baked goods, peach ice cream, and Jaemor's signature sweet potato fries. The on-site bakery and the country-store atmosphere make it a stop on the Highway 365 drive between Atlanta and the North Georgia mountains. Less commercialized than the bigger orchards; family-run feel.
What to expect
Drive Highway 365 northeast from Atlanta. Jaemor is signed in Alto. Park at the main farm market. Pick-your-own runs by season — peaches are the marquee summer pick. The bakery and farm market handle non-picking visitors year-round. The sweet potato fries (a Jaemor signature) and peach ice cream are the iconic snacks. Pair with Helen, GA (alpine-themed tourist town, 45 minutes north), Tallulah Gorge State Park, or the Anna Ruby Falls.
What to bring
- Choose a sturdy tote or backpack so you can keep both hands free on ladders.
- Twist apples upward instead of pulling to protect next week’s crop.
- Plan for temperature swings on the ridge—layers beat bulky coats.
