Pick Your Own Happiness

Sour cherries under the trees at Fishkill Farms. Click here for more photos by Paul David O'Hanlon.
There's good news and there's bad news. The bad news is that the cherries have finished. The rubies you see above have been picked and probably baked into pies (the sour ones) or clafoutis (for the sweet). But don't despair, there's an abundance of fruit still on the way — the end of strawberry season, the arrival of raspberries, apricots, plums, peaches and nectarines — get your boots on, it's time to pick your own straight off the branches.

Thanks for this roundup... I'm bummed that I missed the cherries at Fishkill Farm, but I hope to make it there soon! The woman working their booth at the Fishkill farmers market last Thursday (7/23) said they have currants, too.
Do you know if that's the closest farm to Beacon? Thanks.
I love sour cherries. My grandmum also has a tree in her garden - every year it´s a pleasure to pick them...
