Life's a Peach
It’s not by chance that quotes featuring the word ‘peach’ bring to mind the positive aspects life presents. Much like the peach itself, the expression ‘Life’s a Peach’ embodies all that is delightful, delicious, sweet, and refreshing.
This weekend the Winona Peach Festival is on from Friday to Sunday. It’s been held since 1967 when it started as a tribute to Canada’s Centennial Year. Have a look at the scheduled activities here Winona Peach Festival. There’s a page on the site with Peach Recipes to try, the Peach Crumble looks really good!
