Sweet Cherries are at the peak of perfection!

Sweet Cherry season is in full swing and at the peak of perfection. We have both Dark and White Sweet Cherries. You Pick is available daily: Monday thru Friday from 7:30am to 11:30am, Saturday and Sunday from 7:30am to 2:00pm. If You Pick is not an option for you please stop at the Farm Stand or call 315-524-3823 and place an order for pick up.

For some you can never have enough Sweet Cherries. For others moderation is the key. But remember you can freeze these little nuggets whole for a great taste treat in the winter months. Here is how: Fresh Sweet Cherries, remove stems, wash, and dry in a colander or on a towel. Place a single layer on a cookie sheet and place that in the freezer. Once the Sweet Cherries are frozen remove them from the cookie sheet by rolling into a storage container. Put the container back in the freezer. Remove from the container only what you are going to eat within 15 minutes and they will not get soft.

Sweet Cherries are great for dehydrating/drying as well. Be sure to remove the pits before drying and place halves on the tray for drying.
For the more adventuresome canning is a great option. Either whole (without stems) or with the pits removed. Don’t have a pitter just use a small kitchen knife, cut into the cherry and spin around the pit. The pit will just pop out.

Don’t wait too long the season will be over before you know it!
