Cherry Fest

Pitters and seed spitters, rejoice! It’s cherry season. These ruby jewels are at their peak of deliciousness, and Whole Foods Market® is celebrating with our 4th annual Cherry Fest. UPDATE: Thank you to everyone that entered! Congratulations to our randomly chosen winners: Robin, Brooke, Megan, Erica and Jill! We’re giving away five pounds of hand-picked cherries each to five randomly selected winners who share what they would do with that many cherries. Here’s some delicious inspiration:

  1. Bake em’. There is nothing like a pie opens in a new tab with peak-of-the-season cherries. Nothing. Well…cherry scones, cake or bread is a close second.

  2. Freeze em’. Smoothies opens in a new tab, ice pops opens in a new tab, ice cream, oh my!

  3. Preserve em’. Two words: Homemade. Jam. opens in a new tab

  4. Dry em’. Then try them in granola and grain salads.

Although no one would blame you if you simply enjoyed heaping bowls of chilled cherries with friends and family. Sometimes simple is best.
Do you cherish cherry season? What would you do with five pounds of plump juicy cherries?
