Monday 15th December. …………Not open today. Cherries are slowly ripening! Reasonably good weather for cherries at the moment. Luckily we have missed the rain storms. We will be picking again tomorrow morning with Simone variety. Stella still need a little longer to sweeten up but should be right in a day or two.

We will be open for Farm gate sales tomorrow Tuesday 16th December at 10am. Will have replenished my supply of cherry Brandy jam, cherry chutney and spiced cherries! Very popular items as well as the fresh cherries! Cheers Lois
