There's a lot to love about a fresh Alabama peach—and there's a lot to learn about them, too!

On this National Peach Day, we found an article from Alabama Extension's Tasty Tidbits: Peaches offers helpful information for consumers, including nutrition facts, storage and preparation tips, and delicious ways to enjoy peaches. You can even find recipes for Peach Cooler and Tomato Peach Salsa! https://www.aces.edu/blog/topics/home-family/tasty-tidbits-peaches/

But did you know aces.edu has a whole collection of peach resources? The current ACES peach topic page features many peach-related articles and resources covering everything from growing and managing peach trees to selecting varieties, thinning fruit, controlling pests and diseases, and researching new peach varieties.

For growers: Learn about varieties, pruning, pest management, diseases, and more.
