CHERRIES

Crisp, sweet juicy export quality cherries grown here in Timaru. A Tastebud Sensation!
When you eat cherries, you enjoy much more than just their amazing taste. They offer many health benefits including helping to reduce inflammation and joint pain, reduces risk of gout, high in antioxidants, lowers risk of stroke and can improve brain function.
Cherries are best eaten fresh but can be de-stoned and frozen or dried so they can be enjoyed throughout the year when fresh cherries are out of season.
We grow 5 different varieties starting just before Christmas through to early February.
