High atop a ridge in beautiful Leona Valley is a family-owned 600 tree immaculate cherry orchard with delicious Bing and Rainier cherries growing on dwarf trees. The trees are trimmed to 7 feet so all the cherries are within easy reach from the ground. For children this is ideal and little ones love picking cherries.

A number of other features make Windy Ridge unique. We have safe off-street parking. It's just short walk (or ride) to the base of the hill where our tractor-pulling tram will take you to the orchard. We have clean plastic buckets for your cherries. 

The view of the valley from our orchard is spectacular…the nicest in the valley. Once you have picked your cherries, we welcome you to enjoy the shade of our many trees and picnic tables, along with our wash area and portable toilets. You are welcome to visit with our horses or just enjoy the day. You may wish to bring a picnic lunch. There are some refreshments available in our little cherry stand, and ice-cold water from our coolers is free. We do not charge for admission or parking. We just want you to pick and enjoy our fruit and take plenty home to your friends and family.  Cherries also freeze very well and can be enjoyed all year.

Our cherries are all natural with nothing more than a traditional fertilizer used to supplement the soil nutrients. We never use pesticides.

June 28, 2009

Today was the end of cherry picking for 2009. It was an unusual season with far too many blossoms being pollinated in March and then followed up with 7 weeks of cloudy and cool weather. The result was a large crop of small cherries.

What keeps us working so hard to continue to improve your experience at Windy Ridge is the terrific families that we share our ranch with every year. It's so nice to see all the children growing up year-after-year, and to meet and make new friends. 

So put us on the calendar to check back with us next May, and if you care to drop me a line anytime, I will be happy to respond. wrcherries@antelecom.net.

Hope to see you next year.
