Your cherries look AMAZING!!
The heat index now is 101 degrees; 90 degrees real temp, but that humidity! I’ve been coming back inside about every half hour now. I’m trying to find work in the shade where I can. It’s coming along.
That’s just the Stock Photo from Jung’s but they are that nice.
Picked enough today to make the first Cherry Pie of the season. Will post pictures of that later. 4 cups pitted for a 9” pie crust and I didn’t find a worm or a problem with any of them. We don’t spray them, either. The birds don’t like them as much because they are a tart cherry, but I saw a little evidence of ‘sampling’ on their part.
And, of course, they don’t all ripen at once, so picking will be a week-long project for me. Takes me about an hour to pick enough for a pie. I do the low branches and Beau does the high branches.
He’s off mowing a pasture to rid it of thistles and he said for SURE he’s coming back home for PIE if there was any doubt about his return. ;)
