2026 SEASON UPDATE:
2026 SEASON UPDATE:
We WILL NOT open this year.
We WILL NOT open this year.
Every season Mother Nature presents us with new challenges. This year we experienced an abnormally warm March resulting in a smaller and much earlier crop. The recent rain storms ended up cracking over 50% of our cherries, and the remaining fruit is starting to rot on the tree.
I appreciate everyone's continued interest and enthusiasm in our cherries. I hope you can find cherries from another farm this year.
********************
REMEMBER:
New sign-ups are required for each season. Please check back next April/May for 2027 updates.

Have a great summer!
