Chukar's Holiday Gifts Feature Washington Cherries and Premium Chocolate

Prosser, WA (November 12, 2026) – Celebrating its 38th year, family-owned Chukar Cherries released its 2026 holiday gift collection of Washington gifts crafted with locally grown cherries, roasted nuts, and premium chocolate. 

Chukar’s naturally sweet cherries, dried without added sugar or preservatives, are the cause célèbre of every delicious bite. Whole Bing, Rainier and Montmorency tart varietals shine in wholesome fruit-and-nut energy mixes, premium chocolates, baked goods, and luscious pie fillings—all made with local cherries in Chukar’s craft kitchen in the center of Washington’s fruit lands.  

"The holidays are about connecting with loved ones near and far," said founder Pam Montgomery. "We strive to make the season simple by creating extraordinary gifts that reflect our region. Everything has Northwest verve, is made fresh, and ships direct from our Washington headquarters.” The Chukar team prides itself on same day shipping, custom greeting cards, and knowledgeable on-site customer service professionals. 

Chukar's holiday season starts in June, when round-the-clock processing is required to dehydrate a year's supply of Washington cherries. Chukar's location in the heart of Washington's Yakima Valley is key to dehydrating thousands of pounds of tree-ripened fruit during the short growing season.
