If you are alert there are cherries around for free, albeit smaller ones. Try the lower Niagara River Gorge north of the Whirlpool stairs. Be on the lookout for oyster mushrooms as well. If you aren't up for 400 steps, park by the Schoellkopf elevator and walk along the path toward the Rainbow Bridge. A sour cherry tree with ripe red fruit is on the left after a short distance. Also, bring scissors and a vase and snag a bouquet for a loved one.
Headed to pick cherries today! Thank you for the suggestion!

Andrew, thanks for the great roundup of u-pick cherries, blues and razzleberries.
