Peach Festival

About this event

Summer means two major things around Grafton, Illinois...juicy peaches and the great Peach Festival at Pere Marquette Lodge!

This annual event attracts people from all over! From young children to those who have been sampling peaches for decades, the festival offers a chance to enjoy a free family outing and sample some of the most delicious peaches in the country. Local peach growers from all over the area will be presenting their carefully tended peaches for visitors to sample and purchase.

In addition to delicious fruit there is more to the Peach Festival than just peaches! Festival goers can also pick up a variety of other fresh produce, shop craft vendors, try their hand at Peach Pit-Pitching, enjoy live music, sample peach wine and even grab some lunch in the Lodge Restaurant which is known for its perfectly prepared famous fried chicken. Kids can participate in special activities while others can learn about the history of peach farming from a documentary that will be playing during the festival.

To sum it all up, we're going to have amazing peaches, vendors galore, live music, kids activities, chances to win a free nights stay, wine, food, and much more! Best part? Admission is free and open to the public!
