All I have to do is go down the street and buy my peaches at our local orchards. Love my MI peaches!

california peaches have been at sams club for about two months now and they have been big, sweet, juicy......and a bit expensive. 10 for $10 but they have all been perfectly delicious.

our maryland peaches are starting to appear and they have not been big, but the ones i have had have been juicy and sweet.

@ID2, I spend a lot of time in Michigan and love the food products! Best dairy anywhere, especially that Guernsey ice cream.

@sunshine45fellow Marylander here. One of our local farmers with a produce stand has developed the most delicious peach that I have ever tasted. They are only available toward the end of August and for a week or two at most.

They are called Cal Ripken peaches. If you ever see them in the area, give them a try.

Delicious!!

Arkansas peaches are good as are Palisade peaches from Colorado.

thanks @Mersha i will be on the lookout for those!

stopped at a roadside stand last week and they had small, but delicious maryland peaches.....not sure what kind they were though and did not ask.

i wonder if all this rain will help the peach crop?

recently went blueberry picking and they are excellent.

@sunshine45

Haven't been to Sam's for at least 3 wks, need to go and see what they have too.

I have to drive a little out of my way since they closed the Sam's that I used to go to but nevertheless, what's not to like about warehouse shopping....

maybe because I have to buy a 12 pc case. One down, 11 more to go!

Two of Georgia's largest crops---peaches and blueberries-- were halfway ruined this year by odd weather.

Georgia is supposed to be the Peach State, even though other states produce as many or more peaches. Too bad the crop did not do well this year. Might discourage farmers from continuing to grow them in the Southeast, I fear.

Loved the post saying that a Maryland farmer had named his peach the Cal Ripken peach. Must be a huge baseball fan. Everyone in Maryland who loves baseball has respect for the Ripken name.
