because some varieties do not have this color. peaches with a green color do not ripen well. ones which have already started to soften will need to be used immediately but if you want to use them later choose ones which are firm to touch. even under the best conditions, you cannot prevent peaches from getting some bruises so plan to use them as soon as possible.
note: this year peaches are very sweet and juicy. all my baked fresh peach recipes had a lot of juice in the bottom of the pan after baking. you can spoon it over the pie when eating or discard.
