As peach season peaks in Berkeley County, we can’t help but think about their impact on the community over the past 250 years. In 1774, George Washington planted 100 peach and 100 winter apple trees, marking one of the first orchards in the region. Agriculture and food processing are still important industries in Berkeley County – and they laid the foundation for other businesses here today. https://www.developmentauthority.com/about/history
