It’s cherry season! Related to other stone fruit like peaches and plums, these sweet treats have a long history. Archaeologists have discovered fossilized cherry pits in prehistoric caves throughout Europe and Asia and cherries are mentioned in ancient Greek writings. While the majority of cherries in the US come from the West Coast, these come from Hepworth's partner farm, Overlook Farms, in upstate New York! Just remember to spit out the pit--maybe you’ll make it as far as the world record: 100 feet! Bake a cherry clafoutis; simmer into a jam to accompany cheese; eat out of hand.
