Onondaga

Balzer Blueberries picks blueberries on South Aurelius Road in Onondaga, a farm town south of Lansing. Season runs July into August. Hours shift through the week — weekday afternoons from 3 to 8pm, then a longer 8am-to-8pm window on weekends when the rows fill up.

Potterville

Queen Bee Apiary keeps hives around Potterville and bottles raw and whipped honey, along with beeswax candles, lip balm, and honey soap. Registered as an LLC in 2021, the operation forages bees in unsprayed areas and skips antibiotics, with a stated mission of teaching visitors how to help honeybees survive, not just selling jars off a shelf.

Charlotte

Randy Cook Farm is based in Charlotte, the Eaton County seat southwest of Lansing. It's listed as an agritourism destination; no website or social page describes crops, animals, or visiting hours.

Charlotte

The Country Mill is a 213-acre orchard, cider mill, winery, and bakery in Charlotte, southwest of Lansing. Visitors pick their own apples, blueberries, peaches, sunflowers, and pumpkins from July through November, or buy fresh-pressed cider, donuts, pies, and applesauce at the farm market. Open Wednesday through Saturday, 9am to 6pm. Reach the farm by phone or text at 517-543-1019.

Charlotte

Country Mill farms 213 acres outside Charlotte, running u-pick apples, blueberries, peaches, sunflowers, and pumpkins from July through November. The farm presses fresh cider (hard and sweet), fries donuts and caramel apples daily, and bottles its own applesauce, apple butter, and vinegar. Wagon rides, a corn maze, and school field trips round out the fall season. Open Wednesday–Saturday, 9am–6pm; call or text 517-543-1019.

Charlotte

Atlas Orchards is a family-owned fruit farm on Maurer Road in Charlotte, growing blueberries, peaches, and apples. U-pick blueberries and an on-farm market are the main draw, and the farm takes cash, check, CashApp, PayPal, or Venmo at checkout.

Mason

Swallowtail Farm operates on Hagadorn Road in Mason, just south of Lansing, in the mixed row-crop and pastureland typical of Ingham County. No product list is posted online; the name references the swallowtail butterfly.

Lansing

The Michigan Grape and Wine Industry Council is a state-funded promotional and research board, not a farm or market — it directs a share of Michigan's wine tax toward marketing and vineyard research for growers statewide, from the Leelanau and Old Mission peninsulas to the southwest wine trail. There's no tasting room at its Lansing mailing address; contact individual wineries for tours.

Mason

Shawhaven Farm has worked the same ground in Mason since 1947, running pumpkin picking, hayrides, and a corn maze alongside a petting zoo of farm animals. A haunted attraction opens on the property for fall evenings, and farm-fresh produce is sold on site during the season. Some recent listings suggest the operation may now run under a different name at this address.

Lansing

Spencer Farm's listed address, 601 North Cedar Street, sits inside Lansing itself rather than in surrounding farmland — a sign this may be a market stand, mailing address, or small urban growing plot rather than a traditional farm. No further details are published.

Leslie

Lechleitner Blueberry Farm grows blueberries on West Barnes Road in Leslie, in Ingham County south of Lansing. No posted picking season, hours, or contact details are available yet — call ahead to confirm the farm is open before visiting.

Charlotte

Pleasant Meadows Farms has tapped trees for maple syrup since 1921, making it one of the older syrup operations in mid-Michigan. The Charlotte farm bottles 100% pure Michigan maple syrup from its own trees rather than buying in bulk sap, and takes phone orders for specialty items.

Mason

Brimley's Pumpkin Farm is marking its 20th year on S. Every Road in Mason, Michigan, growing pumpkins mostly by organic methods. It's a low-key, self-serve operation — no attendants rushing anyone through the patch — with a farm stand and, new this year, a corn field walk. The farm takes cash, check, or Venmo only; no credit cards, and no change is kept on hand.

Charlotte

Appleschram grows organic apples and pears alongside a long list of vegetables — beets, kale, garlic, peppers, squash, tomatoes — on Mount Hope Highway outside Charlotte. The farm also raises beef, chicken, pork, and turkey, and processes its own applesauce, bacon, ham, and maple syrup. Visitors can U-pick apples and pumpkins, and the farm sells through the Grazing Fields egg co-op and area farm markets.

Leslie

Klinger Blueberries grows blueberries near Leslie, in Ingham County south of Lansing. That's outside Michigan's major blueberry belt on the west side of the state, so this reads as a smaller family patch rather than a commercial operation — no picking calendar is published.

Dansville

Chapman Family Farm sits on East Dexter Trail in Dansville, a small Ingham County community south of Lansing. Details on what the farm raises or offers visitors aren't published online yet.

Bellevue

PeePaw's Pumpkin Patch is a small, locally owned pumpkin patch on South Bradley Road in Bellevue, built around an afternoon of family activities rather than a large commercial operation. The farm keeps its following mostly on Facebook, where more than 1,800 people track seasonal updates and hours.

Jackson

Indian Brook Trout Farm raises rainbow trout from egg to plate, producing roughly a million pounds a year at its aquaculture operation on West Michigan Avenue outside Jackson. Visitors come for the seasonal fish fry — broasted trout with all the sides — and for school and group tours that walk through the raceways where the fish are grown. Pumpkins get grown here too, a second harvest layered onto the fish operation each fall.

Jackson

Dave Sodt runs one of the last u-pick strawberry farms left in Jackson County, alongside seasonal blueberry sales by the quart. The farm has operated for years on Blackman Road with a small footprint — about one person running day-to-day operations — and leans on Facebook for updates rather than a dedicated website. Call ahead before driving out, since availability depends on what's ripe.

Eagle

The Huhn family has farmed the same land in Eagle Township since 1893, but the strawberry patch itself is newer — a tenth of an acre planted in 1999 that's grown into a full u-pick and pre-picked operation. Beyond strawberries, the farm sells asparagus, rhubarb, homemade jams, and local honey. The season is short, running early June into early July.

Concord

Sweet Seasons Orchard is on Allman Road in Concord, Jackson County. Its website is live but marked "launching soon," with only a contact form and email signup posted so far. No product list or hours are published yet.

Williamston

Gruber Raspberry Farm opens its rows to u-pickers in September and October, a later season than most Michigan berry farms. It's on Sherwood Road outside Williamston, a short drive from Lansing and Michigan State, and closes Sundays — call ahead to check picking hours before making the trip.

Marshall

Frontiere Farm House is an agritourism listing in Marshall, the Calhoun County town known for its preserved 19th-century downtown. What the farm grows or what a visit includes isn't available online.

Haslett

This Clearview Orchards is an orchard outside Haslett, near Lansing in Ingham County — a different, unrelated business from the better-known Clearview Orchards in Watsonville, California. No local website confirms current crops or hours, so a call ahead is the reliable move.

Marshall

Bosserd Family Farm in Marshall runs on a seasonal rotation — spring flowers, summer strawberries and vegetables like sweet corn, cucumbers and raspberries, beef and pork year-round, and a fall pumpkin patch with wagon rides. The farm hosts scout troops, birthday parties and church groups specifically during the fall season. It's built for group visits as much as for grocery-style produce shopping.

Laingsburg

Peacock Road Tree Farm operates on its namesake road outside Laingsburg, in Shiawassee County. Beyond the name and address, little is published online about current offerings or hours.

Williamston

Bestmaze has cut Michigan's best-known corn maze into a Williamston cornfield for more than two decades, an operation locals still know by its original name, Maze-n-Market. An underground drainage system keeps trails from turning to mud after rain, and after dark the property switches over to Trail of Terror, a haunted walk-through. The farm runs cash-only, with free supervised parking and no pets allowed on the grounds.

Jackson

Bob's Blueberries, a family u-pick farm on College Avenue in Jackson since 1982, grows several varieties of chemical-free highbush blueberries and is now run by the founders' children and grandchildren. The farm will not open for the 2026 season — bird damage wiped out much of the crop, according to the family's own announcement. Worth checking their Facebook page before planning a summer trip out.

Fox Ridge Farm's public listing includes only a Michigan ZIP code, 49033, with no city, street address, or other details on file.

Marshall

Black Cat Pumpkin Patch sits on G Drive South outside Marshall, listed in Michigan's agritourism registry as a seasonal pumpkin patch. Beyond the address, little is published about current hours or offerings. Marshall sits in Calhoun County, prime fall-harvest country in south-central Michigan, and patches this size typically run weekends through September and October. Call ahead before visiting to confirm the patch is open and what's ready to pick.

Stockbridge

The Bone Yard sits on Green Road in Stockbridge, Michigan, near the Waterloo Recreation Area in Ingham County. Its activities and season aren't confirmed online yet.

Your Garden is listed at a West Bath Road address in Michigan, zip code 48872, with no city specified. No details on what's grown, sold, or open to visitors are published online — a name-only listing until more information surfaces.

Grass Lake

Toth Brothers grows blueberries without pesticides on East Michigan Avenue outside Grass Lake, five miles west of the I-94/Pierce Road exit. The patch is U-pick only, open through blueberry season each summer. It's a straightforward operation — one crop, done well.

Webberville

Webberville sits in the mid-Michigan farmland between Lansing and Howell. Diederich's Strawberry Farm grows strawberries here; no independent website or current picking schedule was confirmed online, so call ahead for this season's u-pick dates.
