prune picker

This is the blog of a prune picker. (Native born Californian) Retired oilfield. I am an old man. I blog a lot about my body and getting old. As I approach death life gets more interesting. More interesting is not good. I still drive. I attend sports, music, and civic events. I am writing my memoirs. I attend swim class three times a week. Some of my blogs might be interesting. A lot of my blogs are silly and trivial. None are very long.

Mitcham Orchard fresh Ruston peaches.

Here is how you buy some delicious peaches that were on the tree just three hours ago. That is really fresh! Show up at the shed and get in line.

They are picked at 7 am.





Starting about 8:30 they are washed, de-fuzzed, graded for firm or soft, sorted by size, and boxed or bagged.





When they are placed in the box the pretty side goes up.


Joe Mitcham is a hands on type of guy.
