Program: Cherry producers hoping Christmas week gets season back on track

Space to play or pause, M to mute, left and right arrows to seek, up and down arrows for volume.

They're the summer holiday staple that's been a bit late getting to the Christmas table this year.

Cherry producers across many parts of the country are hoping the final week before Christmas puts their season back on track.

Cool and wet weather through November and early December saw the season delayed by several weeks.

Guest: Colin Pickering, owner of Blackwood Orchard in Central Victoria
