Sunny Slope Farms South Carolina Peach Crate Label
Historic Overview
Sunny Slope Farms in South Carolina actually began in New Jersey. Although this might seem unusual it was because Vincent Caggiano came to America at the age of 16 to work on a New Jersey farm. After diligently saving his money, Vincent started growing peaches on his own farm in 1914. The business grew and in 1943, three of his sons started the farm in Gaffney, South Carolina. The farm in Gaffney grew to 2,500 acres, but that changed in the 1990s when the family decided to close the South Carolina farm and sell the property. The final land holdings were sold in 2007. The property in New Jersey is still going strong and has grown to over 1,000 acres. Today Sunny Slope still operates in New Jersey and is run by Vincent’s son, Al, and his kids. The company is still family owned and they maintain the original tradition of growing peaches that are "just a little bit better".
This Sunny Farms peaches label dates back to the 1960s and measures 9” Wide x 7.5” High. It is a very dramatic label with its dark blue background and center image of an antique racecar and driver. The racer is flanked by peaches on either side and underneath the motto that is the reason for the race car, “The Leader”, Through Research. This hard to find label will look great mounted.
