Walters Peach Farm has been an Ellisville, MS tradition for close to 65 years. Founded by Milton & Peggy Walters, Walters Farm was originally a "truck farm" growing all kinds vegetables and hauling them to markets across south Mississippi & Louisiana. Over time, their focus shifted to peaches, watermelons, and sweet corn. Milton & Peggy's children eventually took over operating the farm.
Today Walters Peach Farm is owned and operated by Peggy Walter's grandson, Joe Shows and his wife, Pat. They still plant the peach trees, pick the peaches, and work in the peach stand. The family tradition is still in place today.
