We have a very small peach orchard, about 100 trees, just found the first edible one (kind of) yesterday! Most of our peaches won't be ready until early September.

We only get great peaches a couple of weeks each year.
I like to eat them when they are ripe enough that the juice runs down your arm and you need a shower by the time you are done.
Next would be peach shortcake or a peach upside down cake with plenty of fresh whipped cream.
When I was a kid the S&W brand used to pack Ripe ‘n’ Ragged canned peaches that were almost as nice as fresh.

Just purchased our first batch of (I think) Pennsylvanian peaches.
Bought about 1/2 bushel,, hopefully there will be enough to make a batch of peach jam.
I make a peach custard pie that hubby likes.
We usually go pick our own,but we didn't use up the ones frozen in freezer.
Won't need as many this year.

Absolutely, once you have had a really ripe peach right off the tree no store bought will ever be the same again. The really ripe and best ones are too soft to harvest and get to market, the closer to rotting the better.
We have 9 different varieties of peach, early to late ones. We get about 6 weeks of ripe peaches, mid-August through September.
Mmmm, those look good! We like peaches, they are just starting to have some locally grown peaches in our supermarkets and farmer's markets, everyone looks forward to these.

BBQ/grilled peach halves with a scoop of ice cream makes a mouth watering dessert.
Super easy to make and oh so yummy
Cut Peach in half, removing pit. Brush cut side with a mixture of softened butter mixed with brown sugar and cinnamon (optional). Spray grates with cooking spray to avoid peach sticking to it while cooking. Cook 3-4 min. at medium heat, cut side up. Turn and cook cut side down another 5 mins. or until peach softens. Plate with a scoop of ice cream. A small drizzle of maple syrup (optional) is also a nice touch!
