Moon Cherries News Today

Stemilt Growers participated in its national holiday, Chant at the Moon Day, celebrating the 10th harvest of its high-elevation, A Half Mile Closer to the Moon cherries. Fourth-generation cherry grower Kyle Mathison kicked off the early morning festivities with his usual charm, gracious words and cherry charisma.

Stemilt Growers’ high elevation cherry orchards provide the vertically integrated grower-shipper with one of the longest cherry seasons in the United States. Headquartered in Wenatchee, WA, the surrounding foothills play host to hikers, bikers, and migrating elk. They also are home to Moon Cherries, grown at 2,640 feet above sea level at Stemilt’s Amigos Orchard operated by Kyle Mathison.
