All cherry concentrates are not created equally. Cherry Works begins by using only the finest Montmorency cherries. Then the fresh-picked cherries are bottled into a non BPA plastic bottle to maintain freshness and potency. The cherries in their products come straight from the farm to the processing plant, and then are concentrated and bottled all in the same facility. Do I refrigerate after opening? Yes, the sooner it is refrigerated, the longer Cherry Works will last. But the goal is to drink it every day. What time of the day should I take it? Cherry Works' products can be taken any time, but it is recommended to take the Sleep + Repair formula at night. What else can I mix my Cherry Works with other than water? Cherry Works tastes great in other juices, sodas, smoothies, over ice cream, in yogurt, salad dressings, sauces and glazes. Are Cherry Works' cherries imported? Cherry Works use primarily Michigan cherries whenever possible, but depending on crops and weather, have augmented with cherries from other states within the United States. Cherry Works feel passionate about providing the best quality, American-made product available. Is the concentrate touching the aluminum can? No, the product is protected by a food grade liner. Does Cherry Works use pesticides? Yes. However, each year they test for pesticide residue in their products and have yet to find any pesticides detected. History of Cherries Cherries have pleased the palates of food lovers for centuries. Their ruby-red color and tangy taste won cherries a place on the tables of Roman conquerors, Greek citizens and Chinese noblemen. Cherries were brought to America by ship with early settlers in the 1600s. Later, French colonists from Normandy brought pits that they planted along the Saint Lawrence River and on down into the Great Lakes area. Cherry trees were part of the gardens of French settlers as they established such cities as Detroit, Vincennes, and other Midwestern settlements. Modern day cherry production began in the mid-1800s. Peter Dougherty was a Presbyterian missionary living in northern Michigan. In 1852, he planted cherry trees on Old Mission Peninsula (near Traverse City, Michigan). Much to the surprise of the other farmers and Indians who lived in the area, Dougherty's cherry trees flourished and soon other residents of the area planted trees. The area proved to be ideal for growing cherries because Lake Michigan tempers Arctic winds in winter and cools the orchards in summer. The first commercial tart cherry orchards in Michigan were planted in 1893 on Ridgewood Farm near the site of Dougherty's original plantings. By the early 1900s, the tart cherry industry was firmly established in the state with orchards not only in the Traverse City area, but all along Lake Michigan from Benton Harbor to Elk Rapids. Soon production surpassed other major crops. The first cherry processing facility, Traverse City Canning Company, was built just south of Traverse City, and the ruby-red fruit was soon shipped to Chicago, Detroit and Milwaukee. America's newest tart cherry variety is a dark tart cherry similar to the dark-skinned European Morello. This U.S.-grown variety is called Balaton (named for a lake in its native Hungary). This variety was developed by horticulturists at Michigan State University and has been field tested by growers in Michigan, Utah and Wisconsin. In the Northwestern pa
