Cherries

In 2019 we planted 8 varieties of cherries. The first variety should ripen the beginning of May. A new variety should be ready each week until the middle of June. They are pruned in a way to keep them less then 6 feet tall so there is no need for ladders.

Cherries are currently $4 per pound for what you pick.
