“There is a large demand for Cherries this year but we have a small crop because of the unseasonably warm weather we had in May. If you want to be sure you get Cherries, then we recommend you visit us on our first day of picking. If you don’t get here on July 2nd, you will probably not get any Cherries. It is first come, first serve.”
Blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, and currants will be available in July.
