At Piggly Wiggly Birmingham, we’re proud to bring the best of summer straight from local farms to your table.

Seasonal Produce Highlights: Fresh from Alabama Farms
Chilton County Peaches: Sweet, Juicy, and Locally Grown
Summer in Alabama wouldn’t be complete without the unmistakable flavor of Chilton County peaches. These juicy gems are at their peak right now—plump, sweet, and perfect for baking, grilling, or enjoying as-is. Grown right here in Alabama, they support our local economy and bring unbeatable freshness to your summer table.
Watermelon & Tomatoes: Warm Weather Favorites
When it comes to beating the heat, there’s nothing better than a slice of chilled watermelon. June marks the juiciest time of year for this Southern favorite, and you’ll find only the best at your neighborhood Pig. Plus, fresh tomatoes are arriving in full swing—look for cherry, Roma, and heirloom varieties ready to brighten up salads, sandwiches, and salsas.
Bountiful Summer Veggies: A Feast of Color and Flavor
Alabama’s farms are delivering a vibrant harvest of summer vegetables. Our shelves are stocked with seasonal picks like sweet corn, okra, green beans, zucchini, cucumbers, and eggplant. Whether you’re tossing them on the grill, roasting them for a side dish, or adding them to fresh summer pastas, these veggies are a versatile, nutrient-rich way to enjoy the season.
Health Benefits in Every Bite
Summer produce is more than just tasty—it’s good for you, too. Peaches and watermelon are packed with potassium and vitamin C, while blueberries (also in peak season) are rich in antioxidants. Fresh, local fruits and vegetables are a natural way to stay energized and hydrated all summer long.
