Peaches! They are barely larger than apricots, but the owner told me to take all I wanted. The hens enjoyed the windfalls and I made peach pie, muffins, dried some and canned a few quarts. I picked again yesterday that I plan to can tomorrow. I traded eggs, canned yellow tomatoes from last year and one of the pies.
Bonus - I met 2 more people in the neighborhood, the owner of the tree and the widow who lives on the corner. I had been walking by her yard with our radio flyer wagon full of this new bounty and offered her some. This led to to a conversation. Luckily Hubby rolled up to remind me of work or I would have been late
