Peaches come in a can…
…but it is better to get them off the tree.
We headed out to Sauvie Island yesterday for farm-fun. Our first stop was Sauvie Island Farms for peach picking. It is stone fruit season and it didn’t take long for us to pick 30 lbs. of lovely, lovely peaches…peach cobbler, peach ice cream, peach salsa, peach smoothies…here we come!
Last year we did our peach picking in the Hood River area but the unusual winter resulted in lackluster results on peaches up there. But we did hit Draper Girls farm up there a couple of weeks ago for cherry picking…
After picking peaches, we were still in a pickin’ mood so we headed to Sauvie Island Blueberry farm for blueberry picking (they also have blueberries at Sauvie Island Farms but we like to spread the love). The bushes are very, very full and it didn’t take much to come away with 10 lbs. of delightful and delicious berries…ok…blueberry/peach cobbler, blueberry/peach ice cream…blueberry/peach salsa? maybe not…
