I've had boxes from them of the big fruits like you have and they're indescribably luscious. I found a recipe for peach rosemary jam that is amazingly delicious and everyone got some for Christmas that year.

It is a better deal for me and the farmer get a better price also. <br />I freeze peaches like you do, but I still make one batch of pickled peaches to get us through the year. A few years ago I got a little smarter and started freezing small batches of peaches specifically for small peach cobblers. It is my husbands favorite dessert , but I don't like cooked fruit so I learned to make the cobblers half sized, which is really 2 generous portions. Now I freeze 1 cup of sliced peaches with the same amount of sugar I would use if making it with fresh peaches. All i have to do is dump them semi frozen onto the batter. And to think it only took me 50 or so years to learn how to do it like this.Anne in the kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01533249631969001657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4290836394516314441.post-60225372713343469442014-08-13T00:41:51.154-05:002014-08-13T00:41:51.154-05:00Ooops I lost my comment again.

This has been happening a lot lately if I type my comment before I am logged into blogger.<br /><br />As I was saying, I love peaches though i don't get to eat them that often. I have a bag of sliced peaces in my freezer waiting for a special dish though not quite sure what yet. Mom suggested chicken and peaches so we will see.<br /><br />I like that your family has a tradition of preserving peaches and I like your vintage photos too!Joyfulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09956413632864588646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4290836394516314441.post-16711998890738916272014-08-13T00:19:24.313-05:002014-08-13T00:19:24.313-05:00I just ate the last peach we had yesterday..white ...I just ate the last peach we had yesterday..white peaches, oh so good. Your post has my mouth watering for more. Maybe a trip up to Oak Glen to see if they have any left. What a huge amount of peaches in that one photo...oh my gosh. Glad you did not add sugar this time...I thought at first I had frozen my peaches wrong. Maybe I am lazy, but freezing is so much easier to me. <br /><br />blessings, jillAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4290836394516314441.post-6738415970293793202014-08-12T23:22:23.395-05:002014-08-12T23:22:23.395-05:00Love peaches.

The peaches seem larger this year; perhaps because we've had plenty of rain My first paying job was picking peaches and working in the packing shed.
