Lots and lots of cherries

Post by Shine0n »

Earlier this year my oldest son and I found a massive cherry tree that was covered with overgrown crap.

We took all the vines off and cleaned up around it and this spring we were going to cut the saplings growing up under it. (Not cherry) but work stopped that part and as of now there are thousands of cherries and in the next couple weeks I should be able to harvest as many cherries as any man or woman could ever want :thumbup:

I'll gather them as they ripen to keep ahead of the birds and would like to make a brandy with them.
There are enough to fill a 55 gal drum or more and will be ready soon.
My buddy who lives on the block ahead of me says cherries come and go very fast so I'll have to be on top of my game when the time arises.

I may make some wine as well but brandy is the main goal with this harvest.

I'm going to do my homework but ANYONE who has worked with them may chime in and give advice because I'm about to be loaded very soon like within the next 2 weeks.
I have a deep freeze and will freeze them if needed.
