Peaches are in season, and there's no better place to sample them than at the California Peach Festival in Marysville. Honoring the orchards of surrounding Yuba County, this festival includes a two-day street fair, a peach-and-pancake breakfast, a 5K run/walk, and live music. Admission is free, and this year's festival is scheduled for July 20 and 21.
