Quick westies ... start shipping those beauties east! We're eagerly waiting!

I love the way cherry sizes are described in "rows," dating back to when the industry place-packed the top layer in the box. A tight fit of ten cherries across the narrow face of the lug become "10 row" cherries.

Queen Anne's are my faves ...they come a bit after the Bings.

I have an few antique cherry crate labels that I cherish.

If you drive up Lake Elizabeth Road in North L.A. county you’ll see various family owned orchards where you can pick the cherries yourself and buy them by the bucketful!

It is a lot of fun and they taste great.
