Your drive through Door County is becoming more beautiful by the day, thanks to the area’s cherry trees. Southern Door County is getting the floral show a few days earlier than trees in Northern Door County. The cherry blossoms are appearing earlier than usual in Door County, which usually peaks in mid-May. Toni Sorenson from Soren’s Vahalla Orchards says that she is confident it will be another great crop of cherries this year based on the blossoms.
Cherry blossoms are usually visible for about two weeks after they bloom before they disappear. Sorenson says not to worry if you cannot make it up to Door County to catch the cherry blossoms, as the apple blossoms will not be far behind. She adds that cherry blossoms are a sign that you are about 60 days out from enjoying fresh fruit off the trees.
