Another month down means another month closer to Northwest cherries! The 2025 cherry season will be here before you know it! 🍒🍒 Not that we're counting down or anything. 😉

Welcome to 2025! The days are chilly🥶and there is snow in the higher elevation orchards which make such a beautiful scene this time of year.

The trees are happily working hard on those chill hours and starting to look forward to warmer days. Growers are hard at work pruning and getting ...the orchards ready for spring.

Pruning the cherry trees keeps them healthy and productive. It helps the tree produce larger fruit and allows the sunlight to reach the fruit without being shaded by the extra unnecessary leaves and branches.

The countdown is on for this year’s cherry season – hard to believe its only about 5 months away! 🍒🍒
