Peaches, Blackberries, and Bees, Oh My!

We took a family trip up to Howard County, Maryland to gather baskets of blackberries and boxes of tree-ripe peaches.

The farm we visited boasts several varieties of white and yellow peaches, and we chose to pick the Loring, a yellow freestone peach, with high acidity and sweetness and softball sized fruits! We also stopped for blackberries and made our way to the barn for some special treats after all of the work picking fruits!

Here are some of my favorite photos from our time at the farm. If you can't get fresh peaches and berries where you live, then just pretend that it was you who went to the farm.

Also, I'm taking any and all suggestions on peach recipes, so bring them on!

The farm's barn is also home to a small beehive, where bees come and go through a tunnel in the exterior wall.

All of these photos have me brainstorming a recipe that incorporates not only peaches, but blackberries, and honey too! Oh my!
