Vogel Peach Orchard Update
The Vogel Family orchard reports that Loring peaches are nearly finished, as well as nearing the end of the Red Globe and Majestic, Ruston Reds are at mid-harvest, and the Dixilands are just beginning. They expect to start picking a few Redskins later this week as well. As has been the case throughout the season, the peaches continue to run at least 10 days ahead of a normal ripening schedule.
The Vogels are also harvesting and/or getting some great local seedless watermelons, cantaloupes, tomatoes, squash, and okra. However, the blackberries and plums are finished for the season.
