Fresh Pie Cherries

Got 2 trees Loaded... 1st one has cherries just starting to blush.2nd one will heed a 20' step ladder to pick them all. What's a quart of fresh cherries worth? I can't can them all.

They are currently selling in Publix for $5 lb for the red ones, $7/lb for the rainier type.

Biggest possum you ever saw.

Worth, lol.
Yeah, me too

I doubt i'l have cherries this year with the weather. Maybe zero fruit. I'm ok with that.
Last year it was record harvest and what a piece of work that was. Ladder and baskets
and climbing and buckets. Pears and apples and cider and vinegars and oy, i need a year off.
