These juicy fruits are in season during August and are a favorite for many. Peach orchards are scattered throughout the region, making the fruit easily accessible to whoever wishes to enjoy them. The fruit's high nutritional value, including vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, together with its heady aroma, contributed to its popularity. Aseer's ideal climate and fertile soil, and government support for farmers, have led to a thriving fruit-growing industry. The region is known for hosting fruit festivals during the summer months, attracting thousands of visitors. Source: Saudi Press Agency
