- The start of Michigan Cherry Harvest is here! Join me as we start the cherry harvest portion of the vlog!! Shaking cherries is a hard task that we complete with efficiency and accuracy! We will test the limits of our modern harvesting technology! Working around the clock 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to get our fruit off the trees on the farm!
Join us as we take you through the largest cherry harvest in Michigan! See the process, the equipment used, and the beautiful tart cherries being picked. Don't miss out on this amazing experience!
We will cover from the tree harvesting all the way to shipping and receiving of the fruit!
Much more to come in the following weeks as we work through this years crop!

I will be looking forward to seeing more of what happens at receiving
The star of the show! 🌟
I gotta see more of what happens at the recording stations please 🙏
We’ll get a video of going!
So I got a chance to see cherries on the trees before harvest. How many cherries come from one blossom? I saw what appears to be multiple cherry stems coming from one attachment to the branch. Do the blossoms create multiple cherry stems/cherries?
A single bud can produce from 1-4 cherries. 4 2-3 are the most common. 4s are the sign of a great crop!
That shake is a bit newer than the late seventys Friday we use here in New York, every thing else very familiar though. 😊
Our harvesters are mostly 2013 and up!
@PomesandStones a lot of the machines around here were upgraded in the early to mid two thousands also. Man I bought a lot of stuff hand picking cherries 45-50 years ago on young trees feeeuuu talk about HOT. Nostalgia for me today for you guys. Nice video,thanks. Eat mo pie!!!!!!
They have become much more efficient in the last couple decades! Thank for watching !
Fantastic! Very interesting!
Thank you!! It’s pretty neat!
It's raining Cherries. I'm just curious with the face covering. I know that it's got nothing to do with covid. The only reason I can think of is the dust?
Yes it’s not Covid! It’s sun and dust! 100 degrees outside and the guys wear masks and long sleeve shirt or sweatshirt to keep the sun of their skin!
@@PomesandStones ah ty for taking the time to respond and answer 👍🇨🇦
Hey of course I love the questions! Please ask!
Wow! Incredible machinery and harvesting procedures! I LOVE eating these cherries!!
It is pretty interesting stuff for sure!! Unique!
Love them school bus trucks
They work great to move the fruit from the orchard to receiving!!
Wow that is so cool
Pretty neat!
wee need to see more of what happens at the receiving station
High demand for receiving! I’ll get a video going g
what kind of cherries are you harvesting like this? in Washington state i don't know of anyone using mechanical harvesting like this
Tart Montmorency cherries!
This makes my little 7 tree operation seem puny, lol! I grow tart cherries, 5 Montmorency, a Meteor, and a Northstar here in Madison, Wi. Tart cherries are quite perishable,, and they have to go from the tree to the freezer the same day. We pick by hand over the course of a week to 10 days. They must be washed, sorted, and pitted before going into freezer bags. Late frosts and drought can really affect harvest. It's a fun and enjoyable hobby for me. I make wine from the cherries, popular with friends and neighbors!
Yes a lot happens in a very short time after they are harvested from the trees. There are so many things that can be done with the cherries! Hobby or a job it’s great to watching something starts from nothing but a bud in the winter to an actual fruit that can be pulled from the tree and eaten!
@@PomesandStones I thought so. My favorite pie, after rhubarb. My neighbor has one of these trees in his yard in Delaware and I get to harvest them each year. (the hard way) I have one in my yard but it doesn't do that well. Only a few cherries each year. Do I need another tree? His is across the road about 200 ft. away.
Do you need another one as in to produce more?
Takes me back
We’ll take you back whenever. Skimming tutorial next week
Roughly how many pounds of cherries are loaded up on that truck?
Around 60,000 lbs!
Wait but what happens at the receiving station???
