Cherry Festival (Festa da Cereja) – Câmara de Lobos, Jardim da Serra 13-14

The Cherry Festival is one of the most important local activities held annually in Jardim da Serra since 1954. The dazzling beauty of the cherry blooming season takes place normally in April and May. The harvest begins at the end of May and usually lasts through to the end of June. There are a variety of cherry trees cultivated. The “regional ones”, of medium sizes and prodigious yield and the late picking, large size “Norberto”. This is a variety well adapted to the region’s climate and soil. This sweet celebration of the local cherry harvest promises a fun-filled weekend of Festivities, with great entertainment, food and drink. There is also a cherry parade of wicker baskets filled with cherries and many street shops where you can enjoy and sample some of the great home made cherry liqueurs and many other varieties.
