Freeze them on a tray first, then store them in a freezer container for baking and smoothies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrom Emily\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese cherries come from my friend Kamal and her family's orchard. Kamal and I met on our first day of orientation at UVic more than 20 years ago. We never would have imagined then that we would both eventually become farmers in the Okanagan, but through very different paths, that is exactly where we ended up.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCherries are especially sentimental for me. My grandma canned them whole, and whenever I visited the Okanagan we ate them with vanilla ice cream—even in the depths of winter. Her cherries inspired me to start preserving local food when I still lived in Vancouver. I do not have nearly as much time for canning now that I am farming, but every few years I still make a batch of Grandma's cherries to savour through the winter.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seedlings Fruit Stand","offers":[{"title":"Pint","offer_id":46815175901356,"sku":null,"price":4.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"10lbs Flat","offer_id":46815175934124,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0635\/4950\/5708\/files\/cherry2.jpg?v=1720898151","url":"https:\/\/naturedelivered.ca\/products\/cherries-conventional-bc","provider":"Nature Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
