Happy Father's Day From Fisher's Fruit — Cherries Are Open This Weekend

Happy Father's Day From All of Us at Fisher's Fruit

Happy Father's Day from the family at Fisher's Fruit & Christmas Tree Farm in Brockport. If your plans are still up in the air, here's our pitch: pick-your-own cherries are open this weekend, the trees are loaded, and an hour in the orchard with Dad beats anything wrapped in a box. We're at 467 Euler Road, just minutes from Rochester and the rest of Monroe County.

Still Need a Father's Day Plan? Pick Cherries.

Some of the best Father's Days are the simple ones — outside, together, no reservations required. Cherry picking near Brockport is about as easy as a last-minute plan gets: pull in, grab a basket, and head into the rows. Picking is free at Fisher's, so you only pay for what you carry home. Bring the kids, bring Grandpa, bring the dog on a leash — it all works here.

Sweet and Tart Cherries Are Ready Right Now

We've got Black Pearl and Black York sweet cherries picking alongside Montmorency tart cherries. The sweet varieties are the ones to eat straight from the basket; the tart Montmorency is the classic cherry for pies and freezing. On a single visit you can fill quarts with all three and sort out what's for snacking and what's for baking once you're back in the kitchen.

An Afternoon Dad Will Actually Remember

A tie gets worn twice and forgotten. An afternoon picking fresh fruit at a local farm sticks. Cherries you pick yourself ripen fully on the tree instead of being shipped early, so they taste deeper and sweeter than anything in a store — and the picking itself is the kind of slow, easy time that's hard to come by. That's the real Father's Day gift.

Bring Cherries Home for the Father's Day Table

Headed to a cookout later? Fresh cherries earn their place on the table. Spoon warm cherry sauce over vanilla ice cream for dessert, bake a fresh cherry pie if Dad's a pie guy, or just set out a bowl of cold sweet cherries for everyone to graze on. Tart Montmorency cherries are built for the pie; the sweet Black Pearl and Black York tend to disappear straight from the bowl.

Weather Will Have the Final Say

Fruit does not ripen by the calendar alone. Weather, sunshine, rain, cool nights, and spring growing conditions can all affect when cherries, peaches, nectarines, and apples are ready. Fisher's Fruit will keep customers updated as each crop becomes ready to pick. Even a perfect Father's Day on the calendar can shift if the week before brings heavy rain or a cold snap, so treat this as current-as-of-now.

Check Before You Drive Out Today

Before you head out, take 30 seconds to look at our current picking conditions page — it reflects the actual state of the orchard so your Father's Day visit from Rochester or anywhere in Monroe County lands on the right day. For what's coming after cherries, the farm blog covers peaches, nectarines, and apples as each crop gets close. Happy Father's Day — we hope to see you and Dad in the rows.
