This season
The farm keeps its current picking information on Facebook rather than its website, which is where to look before setting out.

DeKleine Orchards is a cherry orchard at Hudsonville, in the market gardening country south west of the city, picking in the short early-summer window before the berry farms open.
The orchard keeps its current picking information on Facebook rather than its own website, and says so plainly. That is where the season opens and closes.
Pro tip: picking sweet and tart cherries on the same trip is worth planning for. Tart cherries are the ones that make a pie and are almost never sold fresh in a shop, because they bruise on sight.
Our own assessment, scored the same way for every farm on the site, from what each farm publishes about itself. Not a visit, and not a public review score.
