We have been dry all week, which has helped the peaches. The final varieties of the season are in. They are Fairtime, Autumnprince, and Sweet September. These peaches hold well, but they do not get real soft. We advise people to eat them when they get spongy when you press them. They do have a good flavor. Hopefully, we can extend these varieties into mid September. Apples are coming in strong as we are into Red and Golden Delicious along with Granny Smith. Fujis will be available soon with Pink Lady and Arkansas Black ripening in late September. We hope to have Sweet Potatoes by next week. Check back next week for more farm news.
