Colorado Peaches
2023 Peach Season
Talbott's "Mountain Gold" Colorado Peach Season is Done !!
This 2023 season was one of the longest in the last several years. We had many excellent tasting varieties this peach season. We will keep you informed for the 2024 crop.
We have 16 and 20 pound cases, the case price is the same as last year. ($39.95 for 16 lb case, $48.95 for 20 lb case) For smaller quanities, we also have tote bags available. You may also Hand Select just the right individual peach from our display. Once you bring them home... Place them seperately on your kitchen counter, and when they are soft to the touch they should be ready to eat. Do not place them in the refrigerator, until they are really ripe... The refrigerator will dry them out and will not be as juicy. When you take them out from being cold, let them sit on the counter to warm up.
July
The "Mountain Gold" Colorado Peaches are looking to start next week, Monday or Tuesday July 31st or August 1st. The area did not get any major storms or bad weather so far. We don't know what the prices will be yet. This will be determined when they arrive.
May /June 2023
The 2023 Colorado Peaches season is starting out really good. The orchards didn't suffered a late freeze like it did in 2020. Currently the Talbotts are expecting a full crop of sweet and juice peaches this year. It was a late spring in Colorado and the start of the Colorado Peach season looks to begin during the First Week in August and could end the last week in September this year. (Typically the season for the Colorado "Mountain Gold" peaches is Late July to Mid September)

Why Colorado Peaches?
Colorado Peaches are grown in the perfect climate. The hot days are contrasted with cool nights which brings out the maximum sweetness in a peach. We have found through the years that the Colorado peaches simply taste the best.

(you will see that they also have grapes in the video, These are grown to make wine that they sell at the farm and not available here in Minnesota)
Why "Mountain Gold"?
We have found that Talbott’s “Mountain Gold” Colorado peaches have consistently had the best quality of all of the Colorado peaches. The difference is in how the peaches are handled during the picking , grading, packing and shipping process. Talbott’s has very stringent quality and grading standards which produces the best quality boxes of peaches on a consistent basis.

About Colorado Peaches
Why BoB’s
Just as the peaches need the proper handling during the growing and pack-ing process, they also need to be handled properly at the store to ensure that they will “Finish” properly to be sweet and juicy, (not dry and mushy) We take extra care to monitor every box closely from the time we receive it until you take it home!
