San Joaquin County is California’s largest cherry producer. At Machado Family Farms, we grow six unique varieties, harvested at peak sweetness during the magical window of May and early June.
Linden’s unique soil and microclimate allow our cherries to develop a rich, complex sweetness that can’t be found anywhere else. Our orchards are a sea of color in the spring—from the gold-tinted blossoms of the Royal Hazel to the delicate pink clusters of the Coral Champagne.

The Royal Lynn variety harvests early in the season. It’s a sweet, firm cherry that is rich in flavor.
