About Us

We began our journey in 2021 when we purchased the orchard and stepped into the world of farming. From the start, it was clear that conventional methods wouldn’t be enough—we set our sights on building a regenerative system that could restore and sustain the land for the long haul.

A New Way to Grow

When we first jumped into farming, we were starting from scratch. Cherries are a specialty crop, and to be honest, we had no idea what we were doing. But as we got to know the orchard and saw how it had been managed conventionally, we knew we wanted to take a different path — one that felt healthier for the trees, the soil, and for us. That search eventually led us to regenerative farming, which just made sense. It wasn’t an overnight change, but step by step and over the last five years, we’ve been slowly rebuilding the orchard in a way that feels right.

In 2025, our soil was tested by Soil Regen, confirming that our efforts are truly making a difference. We’re now officially Regenerative Verified and proud members of the Nutrient Density Initiative, working to understand how our growing practices affect the nutrition of the fruit we grow. Later that same year, we did a second soil test at the end of the season — and the results were even better. The data shows what we can already see and feel in the orchard: healthier soil, stronger trees, and more vibrant fruit.

To our knowledge, Cherrywood Orchard is the first regeneratively verified Flathead cherry orchard around Flathead Lake, achieving verification in May 2025.

For us, this journey isn’t about perfection — it’s about progress. We’ll keep learning, testing, and improving because we believe that when we take care of the land, it takes care of us. And we hope you can taste that difference in every bite of our cherries.
