more cherries

These are North Star Cherries--just plain ol' sour cherries, chosen to be tough and disease resistant, needing no pesticide.

Here's some of the Lehman gang picking. L to R--Anna Lois, Helen, Milton, Evie, and Lois. Loretta's in there somewhere, too. In the 1950s we picked cherries at the Lehman farm close to Lancaster. In the 1970s we picked seconds at a Beiler neighbor's orchard.
