You might want to search the Arcadia Images of America on Berlin. They might include information on the Peach farm. I’m not aware of any specific book on that focuses solely on the Peach farm. You also may want to reach out to the Nabb Research Center at Salisbury University. Ask one of their staff about a possible selection. Thanks for reaching out.
