Bühler Frühzwetschgen plums are sold at regional markets, by direct sellers, and in farm shops. At the height of the season, up to 100 railway wagons loaded with Bühler Frühzwetschgen plums left Bühl every day for destinations in Germany, Sweden, and Switzerland. The Bühler Frühzwetschge is considered to have been discovered in Kappelwindeck in 1840.
