One of the most beautiful tree fruits, we have seven varieties of Sweet Cherries at Parlee Farms in Tyngsboro, MA (north of Boston, MA) covering about 1.5 acres. The 1,400 trees are on a full-dwarf root stock, so they are easy for everyone to harvest.  We have seven varieties, with the primary varieties being Black Gold and Regina ~ both sweet, red cherries which grow well at our location.

Massachusetts Cherries have a very short season – only a couple of weeks from late June – mid July. The pick your own cherries season can be further reduced by weather conditions, especially rain when the fruit is present. So, we hope you can enjoy this wonderful fruit in the short time it is available!

Our 2024 cherry crop looks great and should be ready end of June
