U-Pick Cherries and Apricots Coming Soon!


All good things come to those who wait…

Every year, when the time is right, the Williamson family opens their cherry and apricot orchards to the public and allows folks to come out to pick tree-ripened fruit.

U-Pick Update: April 1st
The Apricots are almost done blooming and we expect the cherries to start blooming sometime in the next two weeks. Depending on the variety, it can take from 100 – 120 days between bloom and harvest for apricots and 90 to 150 days for cherries. So this means we still have several months before we can expect our orchards to bear any fruit. The orchards are entering a vulnerable time where hard frosts can damage tree fruit crops. 

U-Pick will be here before you know it!

While, it’s too early to really know how big of a crop of cherries or apricots we will get this year, we will do our best to keep our followers updated on whats happening in the orchards. 

Until the fruit gets more mature its hard to predict the exact dates of when U-PICK CHERRIES & APRICOTS will start. Mother nature may still have a few more tricks up her sleeve! Historically, our U-Pick orchards typically bear fruit by late June through mid-July. As always, we will happily share more definitive information as we get closer to harvest – so stay tuned!

Williamson Orchards & Vineyards will be offering a new way to get a taste of farm-life…
