Chinese Longevity Peach
The Linzi Town in Linyi County currently has an 8,000-mu production base for Chinese Longevity Peaches, yielding 12 million kilograms of fresh peaches annually, making it one of the largest production bases in northwestern Shandong. The Chinese Longevity Peach matures in late October but can be available on the market as early as mid-to-late September, meeting the market demand during the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holidays. When stored in controlled-temperature warehouses, the peaches can be delayed for availability around the Spring Festival. Typically, each peach weighs between 350–500 grams, with the heaviest reaching up to 850 grams. The flesh is bright red, sweet, refreshing, and deliciously tempting, making it a rare delicacy. In October 2002, the Chinese Longevity Peaches cultivated and selected by the town won the “Gold Award at the China Shandong Forest Products Expo.”
