It is peach harvest season in the summer months. What to do. Eat a fresh tree ripened peach! It is so tasty, sweet and juicy. Remember to use organic fertilizers for those best results. Other options are to make fresh peach pie or crisp, jam, freeze peaches for later use, or can. Freezing preserves nutrients better than canned but, storage space and power bills might out vote freezing at least for awhile.
