Stemilt Growers Cherry Pudding
In 1893, the Mathison family homesteaded land on
Stemilt Hill, planting orchards in the rolling high-country near Wenatchee, Washington, where the
high-elevation microclimate creates superior growing
conditions for cherries. A century later the Mathison
family continues to own and operate this family
business, growing and packing cherries—and
using this old family recipe for cherry pudding.
