When heading to Seattle (or anywhere near Vantage & the I-90), I always make plans to drop on by the Cherry Barn. This little stand is right off the SR240, and amongst a few cherry tree orchards. I love getting food from the source, and this is what you get here. I ended up getting 2lbs of bings and 2lbs of rainiers. I think it set me back around $14.
We had decent conditions this year (i.e. no late season rain storms to burst cherries). We could have done with some warmer weather to really sweeten 'em up, but the cherries are decent. Washington cherries are THE BEST!
I talked to the girl at the stand about their set up. So they opened up the 2nd week of June and generally close 4th of July weekend. I'm heading to Seattle one more time before they close, so count me in for a few more pounds!
Oh, a note: so the map/location is a little off on here, but I tried getting it as close as I could (it's basically within a mile north of the intersection I entered). They have signs, so keep an eye out. read more
