We are currently picking Penny and Regina with a little Summer Sun to come. You may or may not spot a few other varieties which are a flash in the pan. Penny is a big and redder cherry which is very juicy and has buckets of flavour. Regina is a darker super sweet variety, also very popular. In a week or so we start to pick Sweetheart. There is always quite a bit of overlap between the varieties as each tree has 3 to 4 visits by our fabulous picking team.
Road Closure – Please note that the bridge over the M1 between Salford and Woburn Sands will be closed for the duration of the picking season. Please (!) continue to support us by utilising either our network of lay-by outlets, or come to the farm (we would love to see you!) either via Junction 13 of the M1 or follow diversion signs to Aspley Guise.
It is with regret that we will not be sending out our gift boxes of cherries by courier delivery this year (except for bulk orders over the phone (10 boxes +). The manpower, expense and regulatory issues of selling cherries online are sadly too onerous for a business running such a short selling season. We hope that you will be able to make a visit to the farm or one of our other outlets instead to collect your fresh cherries!

Exciting news – there is less than a month to go until the 2017 cherry harvest is underway. We expect to open around Saturday 8th July at the farm shop, but please check our website and twitter feed (@englishcherry) for exact dates and times.
As the season approaches, the word is getting out that our beautiful fresh English cherries can be ordered online. We have been truly delighted with the response that we have received to our new website and online courier service and have pasted a couple of the more recent articles from our friends at OVL and Woman & Home. Please continue to spread the word....!
