Ain’t that a peach!

A neighbor let us pick these from their tree. They were hanging in clusters. We barely made a dent in the crop. One tree!

Now I need a bib I’m drooling so bad. We used to hit Green Grove outside Spokane and the guy’d let us fill grocery bags for $5 apiece, peaches the size of softballs hanging warm on the Branch.
Now our “peaches” in Alaska look the part but they’re nearly indestructible and you can’t tell the pit from the meat when you bite in.
Peachy keen!😁
Wow!
Wow, that will make several Cobblers! 😃
If you can't feel the music; it's only pink noise!
Nice!...Love fresh peaches...years ago my mom brought back a seed from some peaches we bought from an old farmer on the side of the road in Colorado...over the years the dang thing grew into a really nice tree producing peaches as big as softballs, and so juicy the juice dripped off your elbow when you ate one, were they ever GOOD!... made great preserves too!..a storm came through with baseball size hail and destroyed the tree, a chainsaw, and the biggest, best peaches I ever had, were no more, dang they were good!...
The house I grew up in had some small peach trees that hadn’t been cared for in years when we moved in. They produced incredibly sweet white peaches (rather small). There were also persimmon and paw paw trees, raspberries in the fence row, and a goose berry bush.
Nice
Peach Sangria !!! Slice 2 & add to a pitcher of white wine. Next day, add a little brandy or VSOP & maybe some 7up to taste.
I’ll have to try that, Al. Thanks.
When I was a little tyke helped Great Grandma Cosby and Granny Sharp peel peaches for canning by the bushel in Central Virginia, Grandma Cosby stored them in root cellar after canning Seems like every third one made it to my tummy instead of the bucket to be canned. Yum, yum. As I recall I spent the whole next day on the John.------------------------Ray
great score
we had a peach tree many years ago but some disease killed it off we never planted a replacement we still have left one apple and pear tree the rest gone but still great to pull a fresh fruit off the tree

Y'all have a longer season than we do. Down here the South Carolina peaches are all gone about a month ago.
It’s hard to grow peaches this far north. A frost in May usually gets them.
Ya’ll know where this
A fresh ripe peach off the tree makes me feel all warm & fuzzy! 😊
Preserves???????
OK-Anyone remember the song "Peaches For You, Peaches For Me"🤔
Always found, tiny fruit on unpruned trees.
Whack the trees, pruned up real nice in the winter, fruit will be much bigger.
Only have two apple trees left, so what do I know.
Jim Deere that has to be Gaffney SC.
