peach picking

Summertime fruit harvest

Peach picking is the activity of harvesting peaches, typically at an orchard that allows visitors to gather fruit directly from trees.

It's a popular seasonal outing, especially in late summer: We took the kids peach picking last weekend.

The phrase follows the pattern of other fruit-harvesting activities like apple picking or berry picking.
