There are many great ways to eat peaches, but the flavor of fresh, homegrown peaches really shines when they are grilled!
When fruit is grilled, the sweetness factor gets turned up a notch – plus grilling adds a unique flavor profile too! Whether you feel like firing up your grill or you’d rather just use a grilling pan, you can still achieve a great flavor!
This is the last weekend where peaches will be abundant, though we will have them still for a bit and they will be available in our farm market through early to mid September.
Peach season is one of my favorite fruit seasons! Fresh, in-season peaches are a flavor that’s absolutely unmatched! There’s just no comparison when they’re out of season. One way to extend the peach season is to can or freeze the peaches you get from our farm market.
