I could be wrong but I believe Titan Farms spans 3 counties. Saluda, Edgefield, and Aiken counties. I live in Saluda county just down the road from many of these orchards. Very informative video.

I’m surprised they don’t have a distillery to make peach brandy, schnapps, etc. I just now got to the part where he said there were no finished products there, only ingredients. But that would be great for the soft peaches!

With 35 varieties growing on only 6k acres, how do they kept them from cross pollinating? I’m guessing they bloom at different times.

@19 sec.: “The word, Chemical, sounds harsh”. “Soap is a chemical.” The difference is that the USDA approved soap for consumer use and deemed it safe. Did the USDA approve your “Chemical” for use on human skin to remove dirt. There is a huge difference in the two chemicals.

I bought a peach recently. I could’ve used it for a baseball, it was so hard. I saw a site that said put it in a paper bag for two or three days to ripen it. I did that and it was somewhat softer so I took a bite.it was brown and kinda mushy like an apple when it gets bruised. I don’t think I’ll buy any more…

I was blown away finding out that all peach varieties bloom and pollinate at approximately the same time. Acres Vs Football Fields: NOT TRUE... Hope this helps. At 29:30 an Acre is described as 4 Football Fields; this is incorrect. A Football Field is 50 yards by 100 yards or 150 feet by 300 feet; which equals 45,000 square feet. An acre is 43,560 square feet... So a Football Fields is approximately one acre: 45,000 /43,560 = 1.03 Acres per Football Field.. I really enjoyed this tour and it wetted my appetite for some fresh Titan peaches.

I really like how the owner of Titan, Mr. Car explained how he explains to children how to visualize an acre of orchard land. What a great reference of a football field to visualize the size of an acre at Titan Orchard Farms. Quite brilliant and easy for children to make the size connection from that endearing statement. So for all the negative Nellie's, they must of missed that part of Mr. Cars' stated intention~ #justsayin 🍑😊

Fieldtripping…..I’m sorry but wearing a hat ESPECIALLY BACKWARDS hat is an extremely immature, unprofessional impression that you are giving people. A backwards hat has a reputation for ignorance. If you think backwards hat wearing is “branding” yourself in a positive manner, you will soon find out how bad of a mistake you’re making. No one will think you are seriously wanting to be a successful interviewer. You’re not a 15 year old high school kid I can promise you the farm owner thought less of you when he saw the hat backwards. If you want to look educated and experienced in adulthood, take the hat off completely when youre interviewing. Look at all the most popular KZbinrs doing interviews like this…… they are not wearing hats and DAMN sure not a backwards hat

An acre will not hold 4 football fields. In fact, an acre will not even hold 1 football field. One acre will hold about ¾ of a football field. Just basic math. So a 6,000 acre farm will not hold 24,000 football fields, but a little over 4,500 football fields. No idea where this guy is getting his math.
