With the recent days of oppressive heat and scorching sun, our peaches have begun to ripen in earnest! We have 2 peach trees, and both were loaded this year. They haven’t all ripened well, though, and sometimes the birds think that we grow the peaches just for them. However, we’ve gotten quite a few so far. Many thanks to Sam who got on the ladder this morning to help me get those on the higher branches!
I have 6 quarts in the freezer and a batch of raspberry-peach jam cooling on the counter! Maybe I will make a peach pie this week!
