Warm Springs OSU Extension – Peaches!

For Warm Springs OSU Extension’s Nutrition News – the spotlight is on Peaches!

Now if you are a Super Mario Brothers Fan, or a big fan of Bowser (or Jack Black) – you might want to learn more about Princess Peach’s namesake (the fruit).

In other PEACH NEWS –

  • When shopping for peaches – choose those that are smooth and without bruises of green areas.  The red blush on some varieties is not a sign of ripeness.
  • In Oregon you can find locally grown peaches from May through October.  (Be watching for details about the Fall Fruit Loop Tour – to stock up on peaches!)
  • To reduce browning, cut peaches just before serving.

Check out THIS INFORMATION from OSU Extension – chock full of Peach Info and recipes like the Peach & Carrot Smoothie – and Peach Salsa.
