Peaches, Nectarines and More Peaches

006If you enjoy peaches like I or my family, then your mouth may just water after seeing these beautifully scrumptious, extremely large peaches.

The farm that we visited, known by the name Marker-Miller Orchard, is a Pick Your Own type of orchard, but peaches are not the only fruit they offer. In the fall you can also pick your own apples and they are delicious. Yesterday we (my mother, my step-dad, a friend and myself) went to the orchard. Because it was rather hot, even in Winchester, Virginia, we decided to purchase this years pickings all ready picked.

My mom bought more than just peaches. She and my step-dad also bought some pluots (a plum/apricot hybrid), summer apples, corn, tomatoes...well, I am sure I left something out.

Here are some more pictures of the peaches:
