Peaches!
I just picked the last ones this morning; we had a bumper crop this year on our first peach tree (we have three, the other two are not old enough yet I suspect). Due to favorable weather and the finally totally organic yard/garden (it takes a while for the soil to detox after baing chemical for a long time), our Peachy gave us beautiful, bountiful and yummy peaches, enough to share around with the neighbors, even! She is a Loring peach tree, with smallish, but amazingly sweet fruit. Here is how it looked last week at its peak. Isn't she beautiful?

Yum, how lucky you are indeed! Are you going to make preserves with any of them?
I did not even think about preserves this year....just enjoyed the fruit...I also had an amount falling off prematurely that was not quite as good after laying on the ground for a while. Next year I probably will be better prepared.
Very cool regardless. Maybe next year the other trees will fruit too. I'll bet your neighbors love the gifts! :smile: YUM
The neighbors do indeed love the peachy gifts! :-)
I can't be the only one with the Presidents of the United States song stuck in my head, right?
Nope - in fact, my hubby went around singing for several days in honor of Anna's harvest...
