Every year in Washington, D.C., the cherry blossoms attract visitors from around the world to look at the sea of pink. But across the country, visitors are flocking to California’s fields of almond blossoms. Learn more tomorrow on CBS Saturday Morning.
⚖️ The verdict is in: GUILTY ON ALL CHARGES. 🍒
Seriously, the cherries at the @modestocertifiedfarmersmarket right now are so sweet, fresh, and juicy, it’s almost criminal. 🤤
But here’s the catch: cherry season in the Central Valley is notoriously short. They’re here for a good time, not a long time! Don't walk—RUN to the market this weekend to grab a bag (or three) before they're gone. 🏃♂️💨
📍 Modesto Certified Farmers Market
📅 Thursdays & Saturdays | 8 AM - 1 PM

Thee Modesto Taco Fest knows how to put on a show. 🌮🔥
From tacos and live music to lucha libre, folklorico dancers, chihuahua races, and people having a good time… this is more than a food event at this point.
Every year the energy feels different, but one thing stays the same… my son has the time of his life 😂
Shoutout to everyone who stopped us, showed love, and helped make this year another good memory.
Already looking forward to next year 👀
