June Report

Hi,

Cherries are ripening early this year. The u-pick, we-pick cherry season could begin as early as June 20th. This will be the earliest we have ever started to pick. We will be open everyday from 8 am to 9pm. Prices will be the same as last year. The anticipation for the cherry season is always exciting, and  very soon we will be able to say “it’s cherry picking time”!  So come on down to the orchard, we look forward to seeing you again this year!

Take care!
