Stemilt’s BB #:113654 cherry harvest is well underway at the legendary Stemilt Hill site near Wenatchee, WA. Here, World Famous dark-sweet and Rainier cherries are harvested daily and currently peaking on large sizes with great dessert qualities.
Stemilt Hill harvest coincides with the return of Kyle’s Pick® premium cherries.
This best-of-the-best dark-sweet cherry pack is a great way for retailers to differentiate their cherry programs based on the strict quality parameters that fourth generation cherry grower Kyle Mathison adheres to.
It’s a view from a half mile closer to the moon! This is Amigos Orchards, a high elevation orchard locale near Wenatchee, WA where fourth generation cherry grower, Kyle Mathison’s infamous A Half Mile Closer to the Moon™ cherries are grown.
Beginning in August, these cherries will be harvested at elevations of 2,640 feet above sea level and higher, or literally a half mile closer to the moon.
This unique site allows Stemilt to have the longest cherry season in the industry and caps the cherry season off on a high note with large sized fruit and World Famous flavors.
