Over 20 Varieties of Apples Including Honeycrisp
A tradition for many west Michigan families, apple picking is a big draw.
Time your visit based on what you’re interested in picking. You can pick Honeycrisp, Fuji, Jonagold, Red Delicious, Pink Lady and many more. Seriously, like a dozen different types. Check their website for the predicted harvest schedule and their Facebook page for picking updates.

U pick apples typically starts in mid-September and runs through October.
