Read Some of our Yelp Reviews
Check out Mike's for Ranier and Lapin's. We were very pleased to find a couple of Ranier trees still with plenty of perfect fruit.
They have plenty of ladders which is a plus. I've been to other farms where either they don't have them or there are very few. Thank you!
Ample dirt lot, plastic bag for picking and cash only.
Please support this local business.
The cherries are super sweet, ladders placed everywhere.
Spent 2 hours here frolicking around the place and taking photos with my mom, and best tip- START ON THE OUTSKIRTS when picking cherries because those were the plumpest and juiciest.
But what do i know? an hour into cherry picking we swore we knew 'tf we were doing- ie how to pick with the stem, travel to the top of the tree, etc lol
great family bonding time, and good weather, too!!
Some tips:
- Bring sunscreen and a hat as it gets quite sunny and hot inland
- Cherries can be found by going closer to the trunk and looking straight up
- Large lapin cherries were at the far end closest to the fence
The staff is sweet and very helpful to make your visit a great experience

Join our Email List and we'll notify you ahead of time when our two orchards will open.
They typically open at different times in the Spring. Once we open, we'll send weekly emails letting you know which fruit varietals are ripe and ready for picking, as well as business hour updates (Good to know because occasionally we must close due to weather, or muddy fields after a late watering day, or having to wait for more of the fruit to ripen). And other important news!
