and the cherry stands were all open. It is a very good year for all the various cherries and huckleberries. This is not

A mature sweet cherry tree is capable of producing more than 100 pounds of fruit in a season.
Trees bear ripe fruit from late July through mid August.
Cherries split if they get too much rain when they are almost ready to pick, helicopters fly over to
produce wind to dry the cherry trees and save the crop!
