CherryAid

How you can help           What you can do            What's On               Tell us what you know

Cherries – with their cheery colour, glossy shine and fruity juiciness – are as much a part of our British treasury of fruit and vegetables as the apple.  

But English Cherries are in a jam – in 50 years we’ve lost 90% of our Cherry orchards and now import around 95% of the Cherries we eat.

FoodLoversBritain.com has come to the rescue with CherryAid.

CherryAid is the campaign that unites all Cherry Lovers
– chefs, Cherry growers, producers of Cherry-based food and drink, you, me –
to save the British Cherry.


CherryAid aims to...

Get everyone to bite into at least one British-grown Cherry this year

Save our remaining traditional Cherry orchards

Encourage the planting of new Cherry orchards

Encourage producers to use British-grown Cherries

Encourage chefs, restaurateurs and home-cooks to use British-grown Cherries
 

Celebrate British Cherry Day on Saturday 19 July
