Jones Orchard is a family farm located 10 miles North of Memphis. There are 2 roadside markets on the farm – 7170 Hwy 51 N, and 6850 Singleton Parkway. We have a Pick Your Own location on Big Creek Church Road available during our peak season. Jones Orchard also has a booth at the Memphis Farmers Market and the Agricenter International Farmers Market.

There are currently 25 varieties of peaches in production, spanning 110 acres of land. There are also plums, nectarines, blackberries, blueberries, pears, and apples. All of these items are available to be picked by the customer. Many customers enjoy picking their own for the experience, and the ultimate in quality and freshness.

The Jones Orchard kitchen is located at the market on Hwy 51 N. Juanita Jones manages this market and kitchen. Our jams, jellies and relishes are made at this location. The jams and jellies are made in small batches for better taste, and are made from fruit grown right on the farm. Pies, breads, and cookies are also made from scratch at the Jones Orchard kitchen.

A corn maze, and pumpkin patch will be at the Singleton Parkway location in September and October. The maze will be open on nights and weekends beginning mid-September. A haunted trail will be open on Friday and Saturday nights in October and on Halloween night.

Jones Orchard was founded by the late HL "Peach Orchard" Jones in 1940. Peach Orchard Jones began his peach business by selling the peaches door to door in the local neighborhoods.  He made quite a reputation for Jones peaches, and we continue to produce peaches with the same quality and high standards today.  We strive for excellence and distinction.

The current Jones Orchard peach expert is Lee Jones who has been growing peaches on the farm since graduation from college almost 5 decades ago. The farm still produces the original peach varieties such as Elberta, Redskin, Georgia Belle, and Indian Peaches that are the customer’s favorites as well as the market's newest varieties. The peaches can’t be shipped very far, and have to be consumed shortly after picking. These older varieties have higher sugar content, and much better flavor than the shipping varieties found in the supermarkets. The peaches seem to get better each year.

Henry Jones and his wife Dayna handle the farmers market and entertainment segments of the farm. Cooper, their 5-year old son, Ty and Jack, their 4-year old twin sons and infant daughter, Olivia are coming on fast.

Customer demand for locally grown, great tasting produce, and the desire to pick
produce directly off of the farm make for a busy, pleasurable, and entertaining time at the farm.
