During the summer months strawberries and peaches are “in season” so remember to wait for sales to purchase them. Also be on the look out for super fresh fruit at your local farmer’s market or produce stand.
Many places in the south have family farms where you can pick your own fruits, especially berries. It’s a great outdoor activity for the family and the kids will be more likely to eat anything they help make!
You can make this strawberry peach cobbler the day before and heat it right before it’s time to serve dessert.
