**Frozen Paonia Cherries – Grown by Carol Sikora**

It’s cherry season in Paonia—and for good reason, we’re famous for them! These sweet, juicy gems come from flower farmer Carol Sikora, grown without chemicals on her stunning hillside farm overlooking the North Fork Valley.

Hand-picked at peak ripeness, pitted, and frozen in 1 lb bags, these cherries are perfect for smoothies, baking, or just enjoying as a cool summertime snack. A taste of Paonia sunshine, ready when you are.

*Warning: while I tried diligently to remove each and every pit it is possible that one slipped through. Use caution!
