Sour Cherries [General]
2010 Jun 21
Mers I was at the Lansdowne Farmers Market as well as the Main Street Farmers Market over the weekend and I only saw strawberries so far. A little later in the summer there is a vendor from Beamsville that has a stall at the Lansdowne Farmers Market. They sell Ontario peaches, apricots, Concord grapes, etc. They might have sour cherries as well. I'm not sure how their fruits are doing but you could always send them an email. Here is their contact info from the Ottawa Farmers Market website:

We've been picking sour cherries from one of our backyard trees over the last couple of days. This is extraordinarily early for them, as it's usually well into July when they ripen, so I expect you'll see them very soon at the local farmers markets, if there are any producers that grow them... failing that, I would call around to some of the local fruit&veggie purveyors.

because we did not experience our usual long hard freeze in Ontario, you will see fruits, esp stone fruits and berries, much earlier this year
same with local asparagus :D
smoking with walnut wood is awesome but yes in small doses it can be rather tannic
chimi, you can pickle walnuts for later use
apple and cherry woods are two of my four fave woods to smoke with the others being peach and grape cuttings
