Hi, friends!
If you’ve been following along this year, you know I’ve published several produce guides for each month of the year to help educate myself about what is in season in my region when. That’s why I’m so excited about partnering with my friends at Chelan Fresh this summer for the cherry season!
I’ve got a series of fun new recipes and the latest research about the health benefits of cherries, including coming to you this summer, starting with this fun recipe round-up to kick of the summer!
Chelan Fresh cherries are grown in Central Washington, where clean rivers, gentle mountain slopes, warm summer days, and cooler nights make for perfect conditions to create the sweet flavor of this favorite summer fruit. I spent many summers visiting my Grandpa in Washington, and I can personally attest to the unbelievable succulent sweet flavor that pops in your mouth that make Washington cherries the best. Chelan Fresh cherries are grown by 3rd and 4th generation family farmers who are passionate about the fruit, the land, and the legacy they leave behind.
More to come about Chelan Fresh cherries and the health benefits they provide (like better exercise recovery, pain relief, and getting better sleep) in the next couple of months, but for now, take a scroll and try out one of these delicious recipes packed with juicy cherries from Hungry Hobby and some of my Dietitian blogger friends!
