Quick \u2013 what fruit pops into your mind when we say, \u201cvitamin C?\u201d We\u2019re betting it\u2019s citruses\u2026specifically, oranges. But did you know that cherries are also<\/em> a great source of vitamin C?<\/p>\n

Are cherries good for you?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You may already know that sweet cherries are delicious \u2013 decadently so. But they\u2019re also supremely good for you!<\/p>\n

The benefits of eating cherries are many. Apart from being low in calories, cherries are full of fiber, which supports a healthy digestive system. Fresh cherries are also high in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds that help prevent chronic illnesses (like heart disease and diabetes), reduce inflammation (which helps prevent certain cancers), and promote overall health.<\/p>\n

A one-cup serving of cherries provides 10% of the RDI for potassium, which is proven to help lower your blood pressure and risk of stroke. Cherry fruit is also a good source of vitamins A and K and provides you with magnesium and calcium. This means that the benefits of cherries can include quicker recovery from exercise, relief from symptoms of arthritis and gout and more restful sleep \u2013 just to name a few!<\/p>\n

When will cherries be in season?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

When are cherries in season? That will depend on the variety of cherry you\u2019re hoping to bring home, but summer is generally considered to be cherry season, with a short period of time in mid-summer being ideal for sweet Bing Cherries.<\/p>\n

Before you shop cherries, though, keep in mind that cherries only<\/em> ripen on the tree – when they are picked early, they don’t attain their full flavor and sweetness. Also, once cherries are harvested they convert their sugars into starch \u2013 this means that, the longer they\u2019re stored, the less sweet they are. Storing your cherries in the fridge can help slow this process down, but this is why you want to buy the freshest cherries possible.<\/p>\n

You can trust Hale Groves to provide you premium, fresh cherries that are still on the tree when you place your order \u2013 truly, they\u2019re like none you\u2019ve ever tasted!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
