Frank Gieringer’s farm sits on 80 acres acres in rural Edgerton.
Gieringer and his wife, Melanie, began growing peach trees in 2001, and they started selling the fruit — at a profit — at farmers markets and the store they’ve built near their home.
“It’s kind of a hobby that got out of control,” he joked.
Gieringer said the market for his products — which now also include sweet corn, tomatoes and blackberries — has increased this year.
Wouldn't you love to be able to do that?
