ANN ARBOR, Mich. (July 2025) – Busch’s Fresh Food Market is proud to celebrate one of Michigan’s most anticipated harvests with Cherryfest, taking place July 14 through July 27 across all 16 store locations. Known for its commitment to fresh, premium-quality products, Busch’s is highlighting the peak of cherry season with an exciting lineup of local cherry offerings at its stores in southeast Michigan. The spotlight is on fresh sweet cherries sourced from Third Coast Fruit Co. in Traverse City, delivered at their seasonal best. These cherries represent the freshness, flavor, and local connection that Busch’s guests have come to expect. For images click here.
