LA's Cherries Are Ripe! π Nature's Sweet & Tangy Treat π₯³
π Cherry Season is Here! π π ππ ππ ππ Today's happiness comes from our "sneak attack" on a cherry orchard! The best cherries must go straight into our bellies~ GΜΜoΜΜoΜΜdΜΜ vibes only! I swear my love for cherries means I was probably π Little Cherry in my past life π πππππππππππππππππ Villa del Sol Sweet Cherry Farms π 6989 Elizabeth Lake Rd, Leona Valley, CA 93551 π upickcherries.com π΅ $6.5/lb with $10 minimum per person Pro tip: For 4 people ($40 min), pick ~7lbs to break even! 𧩠Our Picking Experience [Personal Take] π Drove from Ontario via I-15 to Hwy 138 (~1hr20min no traffic). The scenic route was pure therapy for office-weary souls like us! Cranked up the tunes, laughed with family - perfect day trip! πΆπ¨π©π§π¦ π As fruit enthusiasts, we went HAM - picked 30lbs without worrying about minimums! π CRUCIAL TIP: Go DEEP into the orchard! Outer areas are picked clean/have high branches. Inner rows = treasure troves of perfectly ripe, tangy-sweet gems (way better than grocery store cherries!) π³π π Wear comfy shoes (it's dusty!), but maybe skip white tees (RIP hubby's shirt after branch encounters πΏ) βοΈ Bring clippers if you've got fancy nails π π« "No sampling" rule - be sneaky ninjas! β° Check website for seasonal hours Final Thoughts... Perfect family activity! We loved being enveloped by cherry trees - Mom/Dad started whispering like we were committing fruit heists π The $6.5/lb price is fair for superior flavor. First-time success - we'll be back next year! #CherryFreedom #PickYourOwnJoy #CherrySeason #EndlessCherries #LAPicking #NorthAmericanLife #FamilyFun #FruitfulHarvest #BountifulBlessings
