A beautiful spring vision is to be had in the April full bloom, mesmerised by the bees hard at work together with the delicate butterflies adding an array of colour to the surrounding haven of beautiful white flowers.

Then the July harvest are handpicked from the trees to protect their delicate skin with a flourish of sweet aromas to fill the air. - Cherries have been recorded as early as 72 BC being bought to Rome from north eastern Antolia, they were introduced to Sittingbourne in Kent by Henry VIII who had first tasted them in Northern Belgium. A cherry tree takes three to four years once it is planted in the orchard to produce its first crop of fruit and seven years to attain full maturity.
