| During harvest season, our orchards are as busy beneath the midnight moon as they are in the midday sun. Picking the cherries right at their prime means working 24 hours a day until the harvest is complete. After being shaken from the trees, harvested fruit is transported on cherry-colored school buses that have been custom-converted into flatbed trucks. The cherries are taken to a cooling pad where an innovative, proprietary hydro-cooling system super-cools the fruit to 35°F within the hour, while also recycling the water. The great care with which we harvest our fruit is a crucial step in preparing our exceptional quality products. |
