Get More Peaches While They Last

   We still have lots of harvested yellow peaches and white peaches for sale now.  Take advantage of our bumper peach crop this year to fill the freezer or can some peaches, and continue eating fresh peaches while they're available.
   The last time we had this many peaches for sale this late in peach season was 2013.  I urged customers then to come buy more peaches to can or freeze, because we never know if we'll have a peach crop next year or not.  It turned out that we had no peach crop in 2014 due to a very cold winter, so those who came to buy more peaches in late summer 2013 were glad they did.

We now have 'Carolina Gold' yellow peaches (left), 'Glowingstar' yellow peaches (center), and 'China Pearl' white peaches (right) for sale.

   We've now finished harvesting 'Glowingstar' yellow peaches, so we'll have this variety for sale until we sell out.  We're still harvesting 'Carolina Gold' yellow peaches and 'China Pearl' white peaches until late this week.  We'll start harvesting 'Autumn Star' yellow peaches late this week and next week.  After our workers go back to school, I'll start harvesting our last yellow peach variety, 'Flameprince'.

I ate this bowl of cut yellow peaches and white peaches with my lunch.  Cut yellow peaches and white peaches are also good mixed with other fruit in fruit salads.

   All our peach varieties are freestone, and all have excellent flavor.  I give taste samples to those interested in buying peaches.  All our harvested peaches are safely stored in our cooler, set at 50 F, ideal for storing peaches.  We'll still have peaches for sale until about Aug. 28.
   Small amounts of harvested peaches cost $1.30 per pound + tax.  We pick directly into 20-lb. boxes, which I then weigh to exactly 20.0 lbs., so you save $1.00 if you buy a 20-lb. box of peaches for $25.00 + tax.  We also usually have some nice 2nds peaches with rain cracks, limb rubs or other surface damage, which sell for just $0.88 per pound + tax.
   For payment, we accept cash or checks; NO debit cards or credit cards.  Please bring your checkbook or enough cash to cover what you'll buy.  Thanks.
   We're still open our summer hours, as shown in the sidebar at left.  Until Aug. 31, we're open 7:30 a.m. to 12 noon & 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Mon.-Sat., and closed noon to 7 p.m.  We're also closed Sunday mornings for church, so on Sundays we're open 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. only.  If you tell others about us, please let them know these summer hours.  Thanks.
