LAST CALL: Just a few more days left for "early crop" pick-your-own raspberries before this harvest winds down. U-pick price is $5.50 per pound. Raspberries will be back again in early September when the MAIN harvest kicks in, along with blackberries too. U-pick price is $5.50 per pound. NOTE: No fresh-picked raspberries at the market, this early wave of raspberries is "pick-your-own" only. As always, please call the farm at 616-527-3630 to check picking conditions for the fastest updates before you come out, as weather & demand affect daily volume of ripe fruit available for picking.
Feel free to bring your own containers, but we also sell berry boxes at the market store (.30 cents per quart box). Please stop at the market store for directions to the raspberry patch, to buy boxes, get your own containers weighed before picking, and then afterwards to pay for your berries.
Our pick your own sunflower patch is still open this week, too. U-pick sunflowers are $1 each (stop in the market to borrow clippers to clip the sturdy stems). Sunflowers symbolize happiness & joy -- take home a bouquet today! Don't want to pick your own? Fresh-cut sunflowers are also available inside the farm market store for $1.50 per stem. Make fun family memories: Feel free to snap photos in our pick-your-own sunflower patch located right next to the market, or take pics at our cut-out photo opp boards featuring sunflowers, berries, butterflies and more. We just got sunflower-themed hair clips, bag charms, beach bags, canvas tote bags & purses in this week and we even have sunflower-print collar bows from "Cutie Ties" for your favorite pets.
Stop in for fresh, delicious local produce at the market: Sweet corn, plums, cantaloupe, red or gold potatoes, onions, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, garlic, and more. There's lots of summer ahead with more farm-fresh FUN and family-friendly things to do in the upcoming months. Pick-your-own sunflowers, raspberries, blackberries, apples and pears are coming up on selected dates through summer/autumn/fall. Watch our page for updates.
NOTE: Strawberry season has concluded for the year. ALSO: No pick-your-own peaches this year (due to the unusually harsh extreme winter & late spring freezes) but we hope to be back in full swing with peaches in 2027. Michigan was hit hard by extended stretches of extreme cold weather this past winter. The trees are just fine, but bud damage was extensive, not just at our farm, but statewide. Some orchards in Southwest Michigan managed to get through the extreme winter and have a limited yield. We personally know several of these farmers and they consistently produce great quality peaches and nectarines. We brought in a load of fresh-picked Michigan peaches this week from one of these Southwest Michigan farms to offset our crop loss this season and still provide delicious Michigan peaches for you.
If you're looking for even MORE fun things to do (in addition to picking your own fruit) we have FREE wine tastings (must be 21 or older to sample wine) and free LIVE music coming up in September, plus several Thunder Belly BBQ food truck pit stops at the farm in August. See event schedule below and SAVE THE DATES for these upcoming events: You're all invited: Bring your family and friends for fresh fruit, food, and FUN at the farm!
