I pulled the first peach from the ripening bowl today and took a bite. It burst forth in an explosion of flavor and juice which ran down my chin. I gave half to Jean and we raved for several minutes fantasizing future seasons of flavor as the orchard grows.
All the trees are doing well except one of the pawpaws which seems not to have made the transplant. That means we must get another this fall so that they will pollenate. We will also have to add another peach for the same reason.
