Smacking peach pits is fun

Everybody gets a turn

Preparing the smoking mixture.. the hand in a great tool

The red blush really does not count in ripeness

Not too green, not too ripe, so many decisions

Must find the perfect ones

Psst! Look up!

Beautiful orchard

Everyone must learn to pick their own peaches

Who would have thought..a cooking school field trip?

The peach expert teaches aboout the different varities

Each dish is sampled and notes made

Here is how to slice an onion for a peach salad

Mind the fingers when using a knife!

Fresh peach sorbet in a peach shell to freshen the pallet

Up close and personal with the chef is the way we do it

The finished product.. a fresh peach tartlet

Peach pit smoked salmon

The sorbet was perfect with a twist of lemon juice
