Review of 'Epitaph for a peach' on 'LibraryThing'

No rating

The memoir / reflections of a small fruit farmer in California who decides not to bulldoze an orchard of trees that produce yummy peaches that can't be easily placed in the market because they are too tender to be easily shipped. It's a quiet and thoughtful book about farming and families and our attitudes toward food.
