    Cherry picking season is usually right before Memorial Day weekend and by the time it is Memorial Day weekend, the trees are picked dry! So my sister and I decided to squeeze in cherry picking right before the holiday this past weekend and boy the trees are already naked! You have to go in the back to find the untouched trees. Pick the dark ones for a sweeter taste. It's $3.50 per pound right now. Must sign a waiver before you pick! DO: bring a picnic blanket and basket of goodies to relax after your harvest! AND allergy meds!

    It was a freaking MADHOUSE when we came during Memorial Day weekend. But the 3 kids with us (one was mine and two were loaners) had an absolute blast. Hint: find an out-of-the-way corner of the orchard if you want the best cherries with minimal crowding.

    Rules.

    In A Nutshell: -Maggiore Ranch is a definitely a hidden gem amongst all the cherry orchards in Byron/Brentwood. -First time I've been back cherry picking since I was a kid. -Awesome that California had historic rainfalls late 2016/early 2017 bc these cherries are so PLUMP & JUICY. -The customer service was very informative & friendly. -$3.50 /lb. -They provide buckets (a full bucket weighs about 30 lbs). Overall, you'll see many, many options to pick cherries, but if you want reachable, hardly touched trees then come to Maggiore Ranch before it's too late!

    One of the many cherry trees.

    This is my first time cherry picking and it was great! Cherry season starts in May and coming on a Sunday which also happened to be Mother's Day was packed with a LOT of people. After reading some of the previous reviews, I figured coming early is definitely worth it. We arrived at 11am and I was super surprised the parking lot area was nearly maxed. (Not much of a parking area except just parking on dirt/grass). After parking you have to sign a liability form (no charge), because the farm has ladders...yup ladders for climbing up them and picking the cherries from the top of the trees. That's fun! Probably around 1 hour later, we ate and gathered 3lbs of cherries in a large bucket. Not to mention the cherries are super sweet, and I ate a good handful of them :-) which is allowed. The price is $3.50/lb...but is it worth it? Definitely. It's a good day's outing and fun to do.

    Super juicy

    Had a great time picking cherries today just a day before Mother's Day. $3.50 per lb and picking your own is worth it than buying from Costco...parking was free and the lot had plenty of space. Experience was pretty good... will do it again next year

    We arrived at family-owned Freitas Cherry Ranch around 8:00AM (they open at 7:30AM) on the first…read moreSaturday of their U-Pick season this year. Parking was easy. My daughter and I found what looked to be an unpicked cherry tree and went to work. It didn't take long for us to gather a bounty of cherries, and there was tons of low hanging fruit that was super easy for a petite seven-year-old to reach. Special thanks to the Freitas staff member who told us to pick dark cherries. The bright red ones look appealing but they need more time on the tree! We took home seven pounds of cherries. They were $4/pound and they take cash or credit cards. I checked their website before heading here (and recommend you do too!). We'll definitely be back to Freitas.

    We came for cherry picking over the weekend. Interestingly, Freitas asks you to sign a waiver…read morebefore you're allowed to pick. There was no signage indicating price/pound, and they give you a plastic bag to carry your cherries. When we got into the orchard, we noticed that most of the trees had been either picked clean or had berries that were rotten or too small/not ripe yet. We intentionally walked much further in to see if we could find some trees that hadn't been picked as much, but the orchard wasn't in great shape. We struggled to find cherries we actually wanted to pick, and we tripped a few times on the uneven dirt, weeds, and tubes running throughout. When we left, we weighed our cherries and confirmed they were $4/lb. Freitas also doesn't take credit card, so we had to pay with either cash or Venmo. We've previously been to The Cherry Pit and far preferred our experience there. The Cherry Pit had parking closer to the entrance, clear signage indicating price/lb, lots of high quality trees and ample cherries to pick, and accepts credit cards. The Cherry Pit also didn't ask us to sign a waiver before entering.
