This weekend my mom visited and we picked fruit in the East Bay. Tidrick ranch has cherry trees; apparently Cherry Picking Season is only 2 short weeks of the year. What timing we have.
I am picking cherries from standing on the ground; they fall right off into your hands, perfectly ripe.
Cherry picking ladders are oddly beautiful. I even got on one, high up into a tree, and got a little nervous. But I stayed up there until I got some amazing cherries.
Perfect Cherries.
Peach picking wasn't quite as challenging (no climbing required) so not quite as fun. But the peach cobbler we made that night was amazing.
