The post below is a yearly re-blog from a trip to Carter Mountain in 2012! Since that time, we planted a peach tree in our own backyard! It’s peach season!  Try this recipe!

We went to Carter Mountain today in Charlottesville and surprisingly they had peaches!  So we were able to peach pick and do some apple picking!

We made peach cobbler tonight, and we wanted to share the recipe that was easy and yummy!

We got it off of myrecipe.com site:
