Summer peach cobbler with Capay Valley stone fruit, biscuit topping and vanilla ice cream. The August dessert of Sacramento's Capay Valley farm-to-fork rooms.
The Capay Valley west of Sacramento has been California's premier organic stone-fruit growing region since the 1970s, when Capay Organic and Farm Fresh To You established the valley as the Sacramento Valley's organic farming center. Sacramento's farm-to-fork rooms switch their dessert menu to Capay peach cobbler each August when the Suncrest, O'Henry and Elberta varieties peak. The biscuit-topped cobbler is the home version, with a butter and buttermilk biscuit dropped onto sugared peaches and baked until the juices bubble through. Magpie, Bacon & Butter and Selland's all run a version each August, and the Tower Bridge Dinner in September traditionally closes the meal with a peach or stone-fruit dessert from the Capay Valley harvest.
