Okay, so, growing cherries can be tricky! Things like frost, hail, crazy heat, or too much rain can really mess with how many cherries we get and how good they taste. That means fewer cherries to go around and, yeah, higher prices. And get this, they don't last long – maybe just a few days, a week tops! That makes it tough for farmers and sellers to get them from the orchard to your table before they go bad, which sadly means waste and lost money. Now, more and more people are wanting organic and sustainably grown fruits, like cherries. As we think more about the environment, we're seeing more demand for cherries grown that way. Plus, things like frozen and dried cherries are getting super popular because they're easier to use and last longer.
