Colorado Peaches
2022 Peach Season
October 2022
The Colorado "Mountain Gold" peach season is done for this year. This was one of the longest season in the last several years going from the end of July to the first week in Ocotber. Thanks to all for following us with these great Peaches form Colorado.
September 2022
The season is winding down. We had another load of Colorado Peaches that came in on Friday Sept 23rd. The sizes are medium to large size peaches. The varieties we have are mostly August Lady. We only have 20 pound boxes available. We should have these peaches until this Sunday or Monday, Oct 2nd or 3rd. (This is the longest the peach season has gone for the last couple of years.) We are very happy to have these excellent tasting peaches.
July and August 2022
We have a very good supply of Colorado "Mountain Gold" Peaches this week. Most of the peaches we have in the cases are medium size and most are the Cresthaven variety.
We have 16 lb box for $39.95 ($2.50 lb) , 20 lb box for $48.95 ($2.45 lb). We also have packaged in tote bags for $3.29 lb and you can "Pick Your Own" for $3.99 lb. When the peaches are hard to the touch then give them a few days to ripen, leave them on the kitchen counter to ripen. (Don't put them in your refrigerator) The Peaches will be ripe when they are soft to the touch and ready to eat. After several days of being ripe on the kitchen counter, we would suggest puting them in the refrigerator, the peaches could last up to three weeks in the refrigerator. Once you take them back out of the refrigerator, let the peaches warm up some, to get the most flavor.
June 2022
This crop of Colorado Peaches is looking very good at this point. We expect to see a full crop this year with excellent quality fruit. Our latest update from Talbotts "Mountain Gold" is very encouraging. Barring unforeseen bad weather, we should see our first arrival of "Mountain Gold" peaches sometime in the last week in July. We are looking for the best varieties starting the 1st or 2nd week of August.
May 2022
The 2022 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. The normal 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.
Talbott Farms Mountain Gold Peaches
Here is a link below to view a video about Talbott Farms orchard from 2018 Harvest.
(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!
