Not really. Learning how your fruit is processed is a good way to
motivate yourself to buy local btw. :)

I think the more natural ways would be canning and dehydrating.
Plenty of info is available on the internet about both methods.
I've never done either myself but I don't grow my own fruit.
Little fruits like blueberries and raspberries freeze better but
even they are not the same when thawed out.
This is my backyard tree. I want the peaches from my tree. I'd like to
figure a way to save them for the winter.

I have a peach tree. If I do not get to the peaches than the squirrels
will. One year I tried freezing them but it did not work out well. Even
if the markets buy local won't the fruit still sit in the warehouses?

You would need to freeze the fruit using something like liquid
nitrogen or a dry ice and ethanol before you store it in your home
freezer. Your home freezer doesn't freeze the fruit fast enough and
the cell membranes usually explode (which turns the fruit into a pile
of mush when you defrost it).
I'm guessing that the fruits bought in the supermarkets are not local.
How are these fruits kept from going bad? Example: peaches from other
states.
