Food forest harvest: peaches. First year this peach tree has fruited!
This Flamin Fury peach seems to be an earlier variety than the other two variations we have that started fruiting last year. This tree almost died back to the ground when I planted it a few years ago and it's come back strong so I'm impressed that it is already producing.
Been picking a few ripe peaches here and there for the last few days but it seems that now is the time to harvest the majority of them. We don't do anything as far as treatments go to our fruit trees. Last season we noticed if we tried to wait until most of the peaches reached peak ripeness on the tree that we lost many to mold. This year we are trying to harvest a little early and let them ripen in the fridge.
Most of our peach trees are different variations of the flamin fury variety from a local breeder that has been working on breeding cold tolerant peaches for a couple generations. You can order them from Grandpa's Orchard Nursery.

quoting nevent1q…jeeuFood forest harvest: garlic scapes
Picked all the garlic scapes in the food forest. Planning to make pesto, and dehydrate a bunch but they keep in the fridge for a long time so we will be using them in our cooking fresh too. First up as a pizza topping for dinner tonight.
