🔍 When is it ripe?
Apple: Background colour changes from green to yellow or cream (variety determines final colour). Seeds inside should be brown. Flesh yields slightly to thumb pressure. A ripe apple releases with a gentle upward twist — no pulling. Check the ground for natural drops.
Cherry: Deep red and glossy; stem pulls cleanly. Taste is the best test — sweet and juicy when ripe, still astringent if picked too early.
Along old Black Diamond railway bed, there are several apple trees and at least one cherry tree. Apples are not good for eating out of hand, but cherries are delicious. Boughs hang high enough so that jumping to pick is a challenge, but it's worth it. Surrounding land belongs to a private farm, but trail is open and farmer does not harvest the cherries.
