Peaches N Such is the retail outlet of Monetta’s Watsonia Farms, which surrounds it. It sells the farm’s organic produce by the pint, quart, peck, and bushel as well as in the form of jellies, jams, and pickles. Orchards all around supply peaches for peach ice cream made on premises. The ice cream is legendary.

It is soft-serve, so it doesn’t pack the heavyweight richness that characterizes a high-butterfat, super-premium product. Nevertheless, it is dense and intensely peachy, as regal as the creamiest frozen custard.
