School is out and it’s peach pickin’ season at Schnepf Farms. I took the Fashionista and Sweet Boy on a little field trip to pick Peaches.
Peaches
The trees were laden with sweet, juicy peaches.
It was gloriously hot day enjoyed by only the sunflowers.
Gawk if you must at my huge hat and sunglasses. But the Arizona sun is brutal and I want to be melanoma free.
We picked several pounds of the glorious fruit. You know what that means…
Schnepf Farms is also famous for their Dinners Down the Orchard. The next feast is scheduled for November 21st.
What is your favorite fruit?

Hi Laura,
You could look good in a potato sack, so no laughing from me. I'm not a huge peach fan, but I'll eat anything in a pie. I like apples, strawberries, black and red raspberries, blueberries…just about anything. Jam is great; pie is even better. Sounds like you'll be spending a lot of time in the kitchen with your peaches!

Thanks for encouraging me on carters room. Yes. water is a touchy area so I didnt know if a nautical theme would be good but I think your right…doing something postive with water will be good.
🙂 thank you for being so sweet

What a fun day you had! We don't have Peach groves here – southern Illinois peaches are good though.
I think you look cute in your hat 🙂
My favorite summertime fruit is cherries.

Ooo – I love this! That table with the lights hanging down over it is sheer perfection! I wish I lived nearer! Ooooo, jealous! Ok – saving this photo if you don't mind. Lots of fine inspiration in it! And I love peaches too, but I think my favorite is a sweet red plum. Mmmmm. Thanks for coming by the other day – I'll have to do a tutorial on the skirt. (Seems I have to make another one anyway!)
Mary Ellen (megardengal) says
Oh how my mouth is watering for a peach!! WE had 3 peach trees plus apple, nectarine, plums, and pears at our previous home- canning freezing, drying all the fruit was always a joy for me-

Tales From My Empty Nest says
I have begun to get some peaches here that have been good. Right now I am eating them on my cereal, but I love peach pie, cobbler and icecream!!! I also especially strawberry season too and my Dad grows blueberries. If you want to know the truth, I like any kind of fruit.
Dinner in the orchard is such a clever idea. I bet the food is wonderful!
I wear a bit hat and sunglasses when I am at the beach or the pool. I don't want any sun on my face. Enjoy your peaches. Love & blessings from NC!
