We pick most of our peaches just prior to fully ripening (due to our gardener not always being available to pick them at peak ripeness.) After picking we put them in a brown paper sack to ripen. In a couple of days they are perfect and fully sweet! Do not wash fruit before bagging it.
take a cotton towel,lay it flat.then add peaches,stem side down. make sure fruit is not touching. cover with another to seal out the light. Make sure there cotton,or paper towels will work if you don't have a lot. works on nectarines too. Takes a few days to a week,depending on size
put them in a paper bag and leave them by the window for a day or two that should do it :D
