I have been SO impressed with the peaches and plums and oranges this year. All that rain last fall and spring has really made a difference. Not only are they huge (which usually huge means bland), but they are SO tasty!

Bought half dozen mangoes peaches, plums, batch of strawberries and blueberries and had to go back the next day. Never had my family attack fruit like that, but once one kid heard the other moaning over it, they had to have one and on and on, LOL.

And the veggies too! The cucumbers are huge so flavorful! Squash and Zuchini.

The farmers market is my favorite place nowadays. Oh and don’t get me started on the MELONS!

Now, I had a garden in Georgia and there was nothing like it, I promise, but I also couldn’t some of the things I can get down here.

Agree, the fruits and veggies this year have been extra sweet, with jumbo blueberries. Banana production is in high gear in the back yard. Very pleased to say we planted a Florida peach tree last year, and the first crop was delightful this Spring.
