MY fiance brought home a half bushes if not more of fresh Georgia peaches. He is a store manager and they have a gentleman that drives up from Georgia every year. They are delicious but I'm a bit frazzled on what to do with them?? I do not do any canning. Would appreciate any help ladies. Thank you so much!

You can peel them and then freeze em.  Your local grocery store should carry a product called Fruit Fresh, just follow their directions.

We go through 4-5 cases of peaches through the summer. I eat a lot of them. We cut a lot of them up put on cookie sheets to freeze & store in ziplock bags. I just had a peach smoothie. I use almond milk, banana, peaches, peaches & cream yogurt & some vanilla. Also made some peach freezer jam last year. Only have a couple of jars left. You don't have to mess with the canning this way but have to store the jam in the freezer for up to a yr. I think it stores for a week or so in the refrigerator. I mix a jar with the juice of a lemon, 2 tablespoons of honey, heat to boiling reduce heat & simmer for 2 mins. I put this on a pork loin roast before if gets finished cooking. Have made it in the oven & on the grill.
