Key Insights:
We had a blast with picking cherry, there was a good amount of cherry and a lot of room to stay away from other as well and make it your own family event, Our 2 year old had a blast If you can’t tell he thought they tasted wonderful too.
I recommend this to anyone looking for a quick, easy, and memorable activity.. What an excellent U-Pick experience.
The orchard has step ladders every so often so if you want to move it to pick the perfect bunch you can.
Kids loved it; came away looking like they participated in some sort of ritualistic sacrifice (much cherry juices everywhere!)
Grab a stool or ladder and you will pick more cherries in 15min than you can shake a stick at.
