“You can’t pick cherries with your back to the tree.”
-John N. Mitchell

February is National Cherry Month although it seems early to see cherries in the grocery store.  For fans of cherries it is never too early to start celebrating.  Cherries are rich in antioxidants, reduce inflammation and gout and may help recovery after exercise as well as promote better sleep.

There are hundreds or thousands of cherry recipes but we’ve rounded up some of our favorites below:
