U-pick is now in full swing here at the orchard. We opened up apricot picking this morning and they are delicious! We just started on a few trees today, but we will be picking for the next month or so. This is one of my favorite fruits here so don’t miss the early season this year!
Sweet cherries are still going. Even with the challenges cherries have had this year, people have been coming back with some very nice looking fruit and seem content with their picking experience. It does take a little extra sorting with the splits they have gotten from the rain, but the good ones taste amazing as ever.
Raspberries are also still being picked. We just have u-pick on these, but it’s normally quick and easy. I went out and picked a few today to sample in the market and they are looking great. There are tons out there. The patch we have is ever-bearing which means they will be around all summer, so make sure to grab a few while you’re visiting the orchard.
