Peaches!

Holy Moly! That is a lot of peaches!  Canning these will keep us out of trouble for a while.

The branches were so heavy with peaches, we had several of them break off.  Brian even thinned the peaches taking 2 wheelbarrows full of them off when they were smaller.

  1. Looks great! How many trees do you have? Do you get peaches every year? We have one tree here, and got a boat load of peaches our first year (2 summers ago I think), but nothing since. Then this year it died, as we had a crazy warm spell, then super cold freeze last fall. Here they say if you have a peach tree you should only expect fruit once every 5 years or so.

    1. We have 6 trees, hence, all the peaches. Not sure what Brian was thinking. We get a good crop of peaches about every other year but last year should have been the year. We didn't have any because of an early warm up and then a hard freeze.
