The cherries have been ripe for over a week, but today was the first chance we had to go picking. The train broke down at Tonbridge, so we took a cab to the farm.
My tree, number 1909, hadn’t been totally ravaged by the local starlings, and we picked a good 5kg or so of lovely ripe, tasty cherries.
Bentick farm in Matfield is a good cherry growing location, should you need to know.
