Welcome to Spring and soon Summer! It has been a promising year at Cherith Farms this year in regard to our raspberries. It has taken several years to get back after the flood in 2014 where we lost all our strawberries and set our raspberry fields to soak and loss valuable canes for the future. But, we are back in business. We did not replant strawberries since I am pretty much doing berries on my own and I can’t spread myself that thin.
PICKING UPDATE: Looks like we are possibly going to open for picking on Wednesday, June 28th. Due to the cool weather, berries are ripening slowly so will check on them again on Tuesday and post if we will open on Wednesday. But things are looking good.
Beautiful new raspberries
For those of you who love the classic cars and trucks, our Henderson Classic Car Rollin started for this season and runs to September 26. We have our Farmer’s Market stand there and each Tuesday from 5-8:30 we sell our homemade bakery goods. Our specialty is the fresh ground wheat berries – wheat bread and our homemade fruit turnovers which we sell at our stand. Come and check us out and others in Henderson!

Young children are welcome to enjoy the grounds, during raspberry season, where they can look at the geese, turkeys, chickens and guineas. There is food available for feeding them as well. We also have other animals on grounds including two kid friendly ponies to interact with. Please note that working farms have their dangers. Please always supervise children while on the grounds. We are not responsible for injuries.
