Wisconsin’s licensed cherry growers are invited to submit their votes through June 15, 2026, to elect one new member to the five-member Wisconsin Cherry Board.
The Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP) administers the election and is proceeding with no candidates listed on the ballot, as no nominations were received by the March 27, 2026, nomination deadline. Eligible growers are encouraged to write in the name of an affected cherry grower to serve on the board.
The elected producer will serve a three-year term beginning July 1, 2026, and ending June 30, 2029.
DATCP began mailing ballots to cherry producers the week of May 11, 2026. Producers with questions or those who have not received a ballot by May 20 can contact DATCP’s Market Orders Program at [email protected].
Completed ballots must be signed and returned by email to [email protected] or postmarked to DATCP Market Orders Program, P.O. Box 8911, Madison, WI 53708, on or before June 15, 2026.
