Hi, I can send you scions in early spring from a yummy wild sweet black cherry and from "Hedelfinger" a well tasting dark red sweet cherry and maybe also one or two unnamed varieties, if you like them also. In case of interest send me a PN.

I can propose you some of various varieties but knowing that it is necessary to add the phytosanitary certificate, that will return to you too expensive in carriage costs.
Better therefore that you exchange with Brad if possible.
Moreover nothing says that the authorities will authorize that.
To put informed the genus (prunus) is technically prohibited from importation in the USA according to the documentation of (APHIS).

see page 209 of the link

Take this just for information, I'm myself in the middle of work to get all the authorizations. But in France the system is incredibly slow.

I think the cherries I grow are too low chill type for zone 6/7.  Im in zone 10 and grow only the lowest chill varieties.

Ok, send me a PM.  Lapins is 400hrs of chill from memory.  Thats the only stone fruit tree I own thats never fruited here. The chill requirement is too high for my location.  The other ones I have are lower chill and less hardy.
