At the Market This Week (7/17):

On Wednesday, I brought the first of the Red Barons to the market. For those of you who have bought peaches from me in years past, these are the ones you bought. For years these were the only peaches we had growing until the new orchard got big enough to produce peaches. They are sweet and tasty little freestones that are perfect for making cobblers, eating over the sink (!!) or making preserves.

I will also be bringing in more Big Red and Dixiland peaches to the market on Saturday. These are nice, big freestone peaches that are also sweet and juicy. Some of these varieties are really big - average about 10-12 ounces - and I will be selling these individually once again.

The peaches have passed their peak here at Bluebird Orchards, but don't fret! We should have peaches from now into August if they hang in there. It's looking good so far!

See you Saturday!
