gooseberries are a small green tart berry (about the size of a grape) that grows on a bush. if left on the bush long enough, they turn pink. our gooseberries ripen at the same time as our tart cherries and are available to pick during the month of july. typically the season lasts just a short time, so don’t miss out. gooseberries are typically used for baking

an excellent semi-tart apple that is a brilliant red speckled with gold and green. it is one of the more popular cooking and baking apples and holds its shape well in pies and baked apples. it can also be used for applesauce but will be a little chunky unless put through a food mill
Black & Red Currants
during our tart cherry season, which typically begins around july 4 and lasts 2-3 weeks, we also have both black and red currants available to pick. currants are a very small tart fruit (slightly smaller than a blueberry). although rarely eaten before cooking or adding sugar, currants are excellent for jams and jellies. black currants, in particular, are popular among people from eastern european countries
