My name is Polly Peach and I’m a stone fruit.
Stone fruits are fruits with large pits or seeds
in their centers. My relatives and I are known for
our yellow and red fuzzy skins and we’re really soft
to the touch. Most of us are from south, central or east
Texas and the Hill Country peach farms are famous.
We grow on trees and we taste the best from June
through the end of August. An extremely juicy fruit,
we taste great fresh or cooked. Use us with
yogurt, in a fruit salad or a smoothie.
