If you’re following us on social media, you saw the beautiful peach harvest we had this year! The trees were planted four years ago during WALC of 2022 and this year was our first harvest from these trees. We enjoyed the peaches fresh, frozen, as jam, and also as pie! Included below is Tara’s peach pie recipe if your mouth is watering!
