An old lady that I met 45 years ago in Athens, Texas who had grown up on the peach farm where I was buying peaches shared this with me. Wash the peaches, peel them just like you are doing but put your clean peels in a saucepan. Peel all of your peaches and put the peaches aside for canning in syrup. When all of your peaches are peeled, add some sugar to the peelings along with some cinnamon and nutmeg…stir over low heat until the sugar is dissolved. Bring to a boil, keep stirring so it doesn’t scorch. Fill pint and a half jars with the hot peels, clean the rims, add your seals and screw bands. Can in a boiling water bath canner the same length of time you would can peaches. You use the sweetened peels to make double crust pies, just like peach pies. The lady, who was in her 80’s, said this is what her mother did…so I tried it and the pies turned out great. I didn’t tell anyone that the pies were made with peelings and no one guessed it. They were delicious and tasted just like a peach pie. She also told me to put one peach pit in each jar of peaches and the canned peaches would have a better taste and I have done that ever since I started doing that in 1980. I figured this very old lady who grew up on the peach farm knew a whole lot more then I did…she and her mother were right. Oh, the lady said her mother who was born in the 1870’s on the same peach farm, always called the peach peeling pies…”plate pies”. Why I don’t know except you make the pies in what a lot of ladies used to call a pie plate instead of a pie pan. Who knows but just wanted to honor that lady’s memory. We have a lot of fruit farms in east Texas but even so, all kinds of fruit is so much more expensive then it was when I was in my 20’s and 30’s. A bushel is probably triple or quadruple the price it used to be. I am hoping in the morning we can go to the blueberry festival in Nacogdoches, which is 45 miles south of us. We used to go to a “you pick your own” farm in Nac and we paid about $8.00 a gallon. Not sure how much they are now.

Growing up my mother always froze her peaches. Once I learned to can I decided to can some peaches. Peaches are labor intensive and I was so proud of myself. That first jar we took off the shelf and I tasted the peaches broke my heart. Canning peaches makes fresh peaches taste just like you opened a can from the store. All that labor unnecessarily. I've never canned peaches since. I somehow find the space to freeze peaches to maintain that fresh peach flavor. Live and learn. I am learning so much from you.

My grandmother was raised in Calhoun county, IL known far and wide for their peaches. She canned them but my mother froze them which is what I prefer partially thawed with ice cream! My granddaughter and I went to the peach festival this year but by the time we got to the front of the long line only seconds were left. I did buy a few I got 4 cups out of for $6.

Hey RuthAnn, when I put up peaches I wash them first . I then drop the peelings into a pot of lightly salted water. When finished with my peaches I drain and rinse the peelings , add enough sugar to cover and let it set for a few hours. I then cook and make peach jam . The fuzz on the peach makes it taste like fresh peaches. So good with a hot biscuit or a peanut Butter sandwich.

Though Georgia is known as the "Peach State" and do grow a lot of peaches, I stay about 35 miles north of Augusta, GA in Johnston, SC which is known as the "Peach Capital of The World". I am so fortunate to be able to buy 1/2 bushel boxes of #2 peaches for $15. a box. #1's are $20. this year. The only difference is that #1's are more uniform in size and color and only #1's are shipped to the large buyers. I can remember years ago, when if I bought 10 or more 3/4 bushel boxes, I could get them for $5.00 a box! Peaches are soooo good!

Hi RuthAnn - Three questions... 1) Did that 1/2 bushel all go into the 14 quart jars (and mouths, ha ha), or did you make something else also? Trying to mentally calculate how many jars of slices, pie filling, sauce, butter, jam and jelly I might be able to get from the roughly full bushel I have (48 to50 lbs). 2) Would you suggest I add the usual 10 mins to the processing time (5 mins) for my altitude (4600 ft) as recommended per USDA, or not? And, 3) How much citric acid or orange juice would be added per jar instead of sugar? Thanks, and God bless!

I canned peaches yesterday, but hadn't found your method prior to, so I water bathed mine for 20 min 🥴, the jars still seem to have quite a lot of air bubbles in them after sealing. And the air bubbles continue to float to the top of the jars when I move them. I have 3 questions for you please. 1. Is this normal or did the jars not seal properly? I haven't removed the rings yet bcuz it hasn't been 24 hours. 2. Did I overcook my peaches? 3. How do i avoid the air bubbles in the future? I'm concerned that the air in my peaches is a sign they didn't seal and will spoil over time. Thank you in advance.

Iowa winters are not as harsh as Michigan winters, and they grow peaches there. Put tiki torches between your fruit trees, and light them before the frost can settle on the trees, in the early morning, in early spring. Its hist enough to kerp the frost off your trees. They should produce just fine. Winter weather shouldnt hurt your trees. It's generally early spring frosts that get the trees.

Northern Iowa where we live is growing Zone 4b. Most of Michigan is zone 5 and some even 6. That means our winters are more harsh. There’s 1 variety of peach tree that is labeled hardy to zone 4 and a couple hours south of us they survive. But in our area they don’t survive.

Hi Ruth, what elevation are you canning your peaches at? I would love to not have to water bath can them for 40 minutes for my elevation (approx 4500ft) because I felt it made them very mushy! So would love to know if you have any insights to that.

We are at 1200 ft! You don’t need to cook the peaches, only heat the lids and content enough to seal the jars!! I was taught that Altitude doesn’t make a difference when water bath canning!! The worst that will happen if they’re not canned long enough is thy your seal won’t stay.. no botulism can grow in peaches because they are acidic..

@@Ruthannzimm Wow... How much your Mennonite methods differ from the "approved" USDA methods... I will have to try some of your methods to see how they go here in Wyoming at 4600 ft - especially for softer fruits like pears and peaches, so they aren't mushy when you open the jars. Could you make a video compilation of just the differences between USDA "approved" methods and Mennonite methods? I know, it sounds like a lot of work, but it could be extremely useful for those of us who don't have the time to watch all your videos. And, a compilation like that would make it easier for you, and all of us, to reference. Thanks, and God bless!

Can this be applied to pears? The adding the sugar separately from the water? We aren’t peach eaters in our home but I have 2 lugs of pears to preserve soon and being able to skip the simple syrup step would be a huge help!!!

Have you tried blanching your peaches like you do tomatoes? Makes it much easier and you take the peels and boil them in water, strain them, then make peach jelly from that juice. 😊

do you use the peelings and pits to make juice for jelly? It's wonderful

May I ask… why can’t you put peaches in boiling water for a minute and slip the skins off?

If you drop peaches in boiling water for about 3 secondsish then remove (can rinse in cold water) the skin slips right off. Vwalah no waste 😁

I would still rather peel when working with this volume. Why stand over boiking water when you can sit? Maybe if I were only doing a canner full of pints I would blanch, but this volume? No.

@@Ruthannzimm Okay, will do! Tried out your baked beans recipe this evening on my new outdoor burner. I’m still learning. I didn’t add bacon to the baked bean recipe so it was vegetarian because my sister doesn’t eat meat. However was still trying to fallow the recipe besides that. Of course the wind kicked up (like it often does in my area) and I had a hard time keeping my burner temp steady. I was 74 minutes in when the wind changed complete direction and my pressure went below 12 pounds. I was devastated!! Lol. But I’m wondering now since I didn’t put meat in it if it’s okay? Yunnno? I’m doing my best to look it up.
