cherry stand


cherry stand
Originally uploaded by farmerjulie
I took this last year. Along the East Lake shore of the Flathead lake, it is an ideal place to grow cherries. There are hundreds of orchards . My dad grew up on a cherry farm just down the road from this stand. You can find many of these stands lined up on highway 35..One of my favorite drives in the country. The cherry season lasts about two weeks. The stand will all be opened, and selling their cherries! yum!

I believe I have gone my entire life without ever trying a huckleberry! I will have to check our local farmer's market to see if they are even available.

Hi Julie!! Thanks for the comments!! Of course you can add us onto your list. We would love that! I already added you to mine because I love your blog!! Hope that is ok... I am so glad we are in touch again...so fun! So how many kids do you have now? I think when I worked for you, you only had one little boy at the time.
Hope you are having a blast in Montana! My husband was born there and lived there for quite a few years! He loves it there!! He goes there to fish with his brothers now. Well take care in keep in touch! :o)

Hi Julie,
I used to be a fruit grower in a 'previous life' before we moved to the South of France, it's lovely but hard work to have a fruit farm !!
