Me Too are they that high there too?

If you come and pick them, you can have some off my tree. I'm sure there deer will let you have some.

There's a fairly abundant crop in NC, and they are between $30 and $40 a bushel at most places. I have seen them in grocery stores on sale rite around $1 a pound. When possible, we try to get the "seconds", maybe a few dents, soft spots, etc. We freeze them or make preserves so being really ripe is good.

I've got peaches at .97/lb. in my store right now... but they're the California Imports so go figure... most other places around here are running about 1.50/lb. though they aren't carrying the Southern or New England Peaches, so I don't know. I know our goats are enjoying our two peach trees greatly these last few weeks
