apparently they spoil very quickly if not frozen immediately, if there is no market they cant do anything witht ehpeaches. also the trees will attract alot of pests if its left unattended.
This might surprise you, but you can give food to homeless people right now. You don’t need to wait for some peach-related mishap in California to do so.
Aw, gosh, thanks for pointing that out. I hadn’t even considered your point among my disdain for huge amounts of food going to waste that could otherwise have helped people. You can pat yourself on the virtue signal now.
Who ever is paying to destroy them, rip the trees out and rehab the land to something else, what they’re already doing isn’t free. Avoidable food waste should be illegal.
Look up the types of peaches. They aren’t sustainable long term and they need to be replaced regardless. Removing them is less cost then tending and distributing.
Why not give them away to homeless people? Homeless people are often hungry, and would certainly not regret eating 30 to 40 peaches.

That (in their view) would be even worse, then peaches would become associated with the homeless and lose even more value!
The issue is that the idea of destroying product to protect its value is counter to anything good or reasonable.

Wait, i don’t understand, in what way would giving food to homeless people help the shareholders? Are the shareholders homeless?
This guy gets it.

Why would that surprise them? What a weirdly confrontational response to someone you ostensibly agree with…
You can’t truly be a good person, unless you’re smug and condescending about it.
Cost to harvest peaches to freely give to homeless dudes: very non-zero
Cost to burn peach trees: zero
And who is going to pay to water, tend, pick. And ship these to the homeless?
