We want to thank you all for enjoying the harvest with us As of today, our trees have nearly been picked clean. We want you to know that going into the weekend for anyone who was planning to visit... We will still be open this weekend to wrap it all up and have Marge McDonald’s jams, jellies, preserves, and salsas to purchase.... We can NOT guarantee you’ll be able to find any peaches in tree for picking though. You can order goods made year around on our Google form and we will notify you when they are ready.
