Welcome to the Georgia
Peach Festival . . .
The first Georgia Peach festival was staged
in Fort Valley in 1986. Officially incorporated
in 1988 as the Georgia Peach Festival, Inc.,
the festival was once directed by the Chamber
of Commerce. The idea of a Peach Festival was
conceived by Harold Peavey to promote Peach
County and the peach industry that has contributed
so much to the livelihood of the state of Georgia.
This 2007 Georgia Peach Festival commemorates
the event's 21st anniversary and the 83rd anniversary
of Peach County! The Peach Festival holds the
honor of being the only state–sanctioned
food festival.
The Georgia Peach Festival is partially funded
by government partners such as the Peach County
Board of Commissioners, Fort Valley Utility
Commission, the City Governments of Byron and
Fort Valley, the Byron Convention and Visitors
Bureau and the Peach County tourism committee.
