Everybody asks methe same three questions
Tell me your town and the corners you've been looking at. I'll answer all three — not in general, for your actual spot.
- 01Where do I get the peaches?
- 02Where do I put the stand?
- 03How do I find customers?
Peaches and a Parking Lot
Send me up to three corners. I'll tell you which one works, why, and where to buy your first fruit.

The one nobody believes
8 out of 10
of my customers are brand new every single day — and I have never once gone looking for one of them.
There's no marketing in this business. No ads, no posting, no list to build. The corner does that work. Most people can't picture it until they see it on their own street.
What you get back
A recorded walkthrough where I go through your photos and talk you through what I see, plus a written page you can keep.
-
A straight answer on each corner
Works, marginal, or no — and the reason why. Traffic at the hours you'd actually be open. How fast that road moves. Whether a car can get in and back out. How many seconds a driver can see you before the turn. Room to park. What's pulling people down that road in the first place.
-
Why you'll never look for a customer
What the traffic on your road actually means, on your corner, during the hours you said you'd work.
-
Where to buy your first peaches
A real source in your part of the country you can pick up the phone and call. What to ask for, what it should cost, and how to tell if you're being handled.
-
An honest list of what I didn't tell you
Running a stand for a whole season takes more than three answers, and I'm not going to pretend otherwise. You'll get a plain list of what's still ahead of you.
What this is not
I'd rather tell you now than have you find out after you've paid. Not included, on purpose:
- What to pay for fruit at real volume, or how to get it
- What to charge, and how to hold your price
- How much to buy so you're not eating the difference
- What to do with what doesn't sell
- Permits, sales tax, and the paperwork
- How to run it when you can't be there
- Adding a second corner, or a fifth
- What goes on the table the other nine months
All of that is the course. This is the part that comes first — finding out whether you've got a corner worth standing on.
How it works
Pay
$297. Takes a minute.
Send me your spots
A short form. Your town, up to three corners, and a few phone photos of each. Five minutes, sitting in your truck.
I look, and I tell you
Within seven business days you get the recording and the written page. If none of your corners work, I'll tell you that too, and what to look for instead.
Why me
I've been running roadside peach stands for fifteen years. Not as a side project I write about — as the thing I actually do, on real corners, every summer.
In that time I've helped people go from one stand to twenty. I've also told plenty of people the spot they were excited about wasn't going to work. Nobody enjoys that conversation, but everybody would rather have it before they buy the fruit.

Questions
What if all three of my corners are bad?
Then I'll tell you, and I'll tell you what was wrong with each one and what to look for instead. Finding out now costs you $297. Finding out in July costs you a summer.
I don't have a spot picked out yet.
Send me the two or three places you've driven past and wondered about. Half the value is learning what makes one corner better than another, and you'll pick your next ones better once you've heard why.
Why not just book the free call?
You can, and you're welcome to. The call is a conversation about whether the course is right for you.
This is different. This is me sitting down with your photos and doing the work — a real answer about your specific corner that you keep, whether you ever buy anything else or not.
Do I need the course too?
Not to find out whether your corner works — that's what this is for. If you decide to go further, the $297 comes off the course price for 90 days, so it costs you nothing extra if you enroll.
Can I do this with a full-time job?
Most people who do this have one. The season runs Memorial Day to Labor Day and you decide which days you open. That's the appeal for a lot of folks — you set the hours, not an app and not a boss.
What do I actually need to start a stand?
A busy parking lot, a folding table, a handwritten sign, and peaches. There's no equipment to buy from me and I don't sell any.
What photos do you need?
Three or four per spot, on your phone. The lot itself, the road looking each direction, and — this is the one that matters most — what a driver sees coming up on it. Pull over and shoot it out the windshield.
How long does it take?
Seven business days from when you send your photos. If I don't get it to you in that time, you get your money back.
Send me your corner.
You've heard me say this business works. This is where you find out whether it works where you live.
