Our peaches ripened this week and we've started picking. We have a dozen peach trees but only one of them really bore fruit this year. Not sure if this is due to the condition of the trees or the vagaries of the frosts we had in the spring. But overall the trees have been neglected and need to be pruned and fertilized for next season. The peaches sure taste good."Stuff is eaten by dogs, broken by family and friends, sanded down by the wind, frozen by the mountains, lost by the prairie, burnt off by the sun, washed away by the rain. So you are left with dogs, family, friends, sun, rain, wind, prairie and mountains. What more do you want?" Federico Calboli

Nothing better than a home grown peach! You can pick them just as they come ripe.
WE had very little rain this summer and my gardens all shrivelled up. Only three little tomatoes that ripened!!!
