Thursday Treats: Cherry Season

Cherry Season in California has started!  I always get so excited with cherry season.  My family loves cherries so much and I think the excitement is mixed with knowing that cherry season doesn't last very long.  You always want what you can't get right?



Cherry season only lasts about six weeks from about mid May to end of June.  Head out to your local farmer's markets now and you should be able to find some.  After June, you will probably find some all summer but the quality is never that great.

Here in Northern CA, there are many cherry farms to take the kids out to harvest your own cherries.  Click here to find some cherry farms in the Brentwood area as well as other u-pick fruit farms.
