Cherries

Cherry Facts WI ranks #4 Cherries grow on trees There are cherry orchards Takes 4-5 years before a tree can produce enough cherries for harvest February is National Cherry Month Average American eats 1lb tart cherries/year 250 cherries = 1 pie

Growing Cherries Winter: nutrients stored in the roots Farmers cut off weak branches to keep the tree strong and produce more berries Early Spring: buds on the cherry trees swell and turn green (new trees are planted too) May: the buds blossom into white cherry blossom flowers Summer: bees visit the blossoms and pollinate them Petals fall off and leave behind green bud that will ripen Late June: cherry remains green, but with the rain it begins to show reddish color

Growing Cherries July: Harvesting season!!!! Machines with upside-down umbrellas shake the cherries off the tree into a tarp The cherries are transferred (with a conveyor belt) to tanks of 45 degree water The cherries are kept in the water for several hours with the water being constantly flushed Machines remove the stems and pits from the cherries and then processed into the final product The rest of the year: cherries are available to consumers

Cherry Facts Door County cherries account for over 95% of all tart cherries produced in WI 10.9 million lbs of tart cherries produced in WI About 7,000 cherries on the average size tree (enough for 28 pies) Montmorency is primary variety Used for pies, preserves and juice Maraschino cherries made from sweet cherries Used in drinks and desserts
