We really do sweat on the farm, refreshed by quenching beverages. Next, we gather at the family table, a table filled with stories of working the land as a family, along with the food that brings company together, and share savory recipes. We enjoy long meals at the farm, the perfect pairing of great food with great conversation. Of course, our farm is not only about work. We also dream and we pause to enjoy the pleasures of life with luscious peaches. The sweetness of desserts blended with the fantasy of owning a working family farm—it doesn’t get much better than these moments.
Fool to be out in this kind of heat. But grapes and peaches demand it, and if I’m thirsty, so are they. The work and heat beat me up. I lean over, panting. Take short breaths, save energy, feel the heart race and veins and arteries pulsate. I want to quit, not worth it, sweating is cutting years off my life. A drip off my chin, my nose, draining life away. But farmwork needs to be done. Sagging branches need staking before snapping. Dead limbs must be dragged away like corpses. Weeds grow wild, sapping moisture.
Even within a single variety’s harvest window, the first round of picking the fruit is much different from the final round ten days later. Include the fact that one year may be different from another due to weather, and the name attached to a peach may not mean much. Shopping by variety alone may not always make sense. The exception to this may be farmers’ markets and a few select stores, but even the peaches found in those venues will have character issues, and variation will remain the rule. Also complicating selection is the fact that the typical peach is only ripe and harvested over a ten- to fourteen-day period.
