Agritourism & Farm Experiences near Ann Arbor, MI

Ann Arbor

Destination Ann Arbor (formerly the Ann Arbor Area Convention and Visitors Bureau) is the official tourism office for Ann Arbor and Washtenaw County — not a farm itself, but the agency travelers use to find area farm markets, orchards, and agritourism events. It markets local attractions, dining, and lodging, and runs commissions for meetings, weddings, and sports tourism. Visit annarbor.org for current guides.

Ann Arbor

Tantre Farm has grown vegetables the ecological way in Chelsea, Michigan since 1993 — 80 to 100 varieties, from beans to bok choy, plus mushrooms, herbs, strawberries, and melons. The farm also raises chickens, ducks, pigs, and cows. Produce moves through CSA shares, area restaurants and stores, and the Ann Arbor and Chelsea farmers markets. Once certified organic for two decades, Tantre now markets its methods simply as ecologically grown.

The fall season runs U-pick apples and pumpkins alongside a cider mill that's pressed juice for more than 189 years. A country fair section adds a corn maze, petting farm, and bakery, and after dark the grounds turn into Night Terrors, a haunted attraction. It's a full day trip more than a quick produce stop.

Dexter

Berry Hill Farm closed for good in April 2026, after Jim and Nancy Jedele ran it in Dexter for nearly 40 years starting in 1986. It was known for u-pick red raspberries in the fall, plus pre-picked apples, pumpkins, gourds, and squash. Jedele's farewell post said the farm almost made it to 40 years — a run that outlasted most of the u-pick farms that opened around it.

Plymouth

Ypsilanti

Rowe's has run u-pick strawberries and peas in Ypsilanti since 1968, and locals still call it the largest u-pick acreage for both crops anywhere in Michigan. Sweet corn comes in bi-color, and the farm market stocks honey, jams, jellies, salsa, marinades, soups, relishes, spices, popcorn, and canning supplies. Weather has pushed strawberry picking off some recent seasons — call ahead before making the drive.

Chelsea

The Community Farm of Ann Arbor started Michigan's first CSA in 1988 and has run as a biodynamic, certified-organic operation on its Chelsea land ever since. Members get heirloom vegetables alongside peaches, apples, pears, and paw-paws from the farm's fruit trees, plus dairy and eggs from cows, goats, sheep, and bees raised on site. It's one of the longest-running CSAs in the state, not a roadside u-pick.

The festival grounds carry more than 20 attractions plus a new 25-foot mega slide, specialty donuts, and food vendors. The same property runs Fall and Tulip festivals later in the year, so the fields and activities change with the season.

Belleville

DeBuck's has run its family farm in Belleville since 2009 across two generations, laying out a 15-acre corn maze and a 20-acre pumpkin patch each fall alongside slides, pedal carts, paintball, and apple cannons.

Fall brings pumpkins and orchard visits, and the grounds host weddings and private events under a gazebo the rest of the year.

Pinckney

Chris and Dea Schell opened their 250-acre farm to the public in August 2019, with land spread across Putnam Township and Pinckney. The property grows pumpkins, apples, and wildflowers, taps its own maple syrup, and cuts Christmas trees each winter. Wagon rides and school tours run alongside the orchard, and the Schells book the grounds for photography sessions.

Belleville

The Pumpkin Factory is a seasonal pumpkin patch in Belleville, a lakeside community in the Detroit metro's outer suburbs. Fall is clearly the season here, given the name, but no confirmed hours, pricing, or activity list turned up online. Check directly before visiting during pumpkin season.

Howell

Triple Diamonds Alpaca Ranch breeds alpacas on Schafer Road outside Howell, with a boutique shop on-site selling fiber goods alongside the animal encounters.

Dundee

Farmer J's Corn Maze cuts a family-friendly maze into a field near Tye's Produce Stand on M-50 in Dundee, Michigan, just west of US-23. There's no haunted house angle here — groups can walk after dark with flashlights, and maps with waypoints let visitors dial the difficulty up or down. Tables and picnic space are on site, group rates apply for parties of 25 or more, and tickets go through an online booking system. The maze runs seasonally and reopens each September.

Manchester

O'Honey Bees keeps hives on East Main Street in Manchester, a small Washtenaw County town southwest of Ann Arbor. The operation's focus is honey rather than produce or u-pick crops.

Manchester

They also run tours and seasonal internships — check their Facebook page for current contact details, since phone and email aren't listed on the site.

Romulus

Bird's Big Punk'ns grows monster pumpkins and u-pick fall red raspberries in Romulus, along with gourds, corn stalks, baled straw, and honey. The season opens in September and runs through October, daily from 10am until dark. It's a straightforward fall stop — no corn maze or petting zoo, just pumpkins by the acre and raspberries you pick yourself.

Dundee

Harnica Kids' Pumpkin Farm opens for exactly one month a year — October, dawn to dusk, seven days a week — selling pumpkins, squash, and gourds in every size from small to extra-large. The farm's signature event is the Great Pumpkin Weigh-off, held the first Saturday of October, where growers bring in their biggest entries to be measured on the scale.

Generations later, the farm still runs u-pick blueberries, raspberries, peaches, and plums, plus a bakeshop called Sweet Maria's that turns the harvest into pies, cookies, and homemade ice cream. The season opens in early July and runs into fall.

Huron Charter Twp

The Lone Oak Sunflower Farm and Corn Maze opens each fall across a 16-acre sunflower field where visitors cut their own bouquets.

The farm also rents its barn for private events and photo sessions through the end of October.

Highland Charter Twp

The farm market opens at 9am daily and stays open until 7pm, with cider, donuts, caramel apples, and fudge alongside the wine list; the winery itself runs 11am to 8pm. Fall brings a corn maze, pumpkin patch, and harvest festival on top of the wagon rides.

Fenton

Rex Apiary has kept bees in the Irish Hills lake district for more than 50 years, formalizing as an LLC in 2019 under registered agent Karen Rex. They plant fields specifically to shape what their bees forage on, plus raise queen bees and nucleus colonies for other beekeepers. Their honey turns up locally at Heavenly Scent Herb Farm and C A LaMont Farms in Fenton, or direct through their website.

Tipton

Keeney Orchards has grown apples in Lenawee County since before the farm earned a spot on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001. Picking runs late August through October, though timing shifts with the harvest, so calling ahead before driving out to Tipton is worth it. Reviewers keep a 4.5-star average that's held for years.

Highland

Bonadeo Farms sits about 40 miles northwest of Detroit, where fall visitors walk a corn maze that grows 8 to 10 feet tall and pick their own apples and pumpkins. Daytime hours bring hayrides, cider, and homemade donuts; after dark the farm becomes Full Moon Manor, a haunted house and haunted corn maze staffed with actors. The barn is also available to rent for events.

Brainerd Farms grows berries, stone fruit, and pumpkins on Groger Road in Onsted, in Lenawee County. The pumpkin patch is the fall draw, but the same ground produces peaches, plums, and other stone fruit earlier in the season — check with the farm for what's ripe before making the trip.

Onsted

Honey Tree Farm operates as Honeytree Inc, a honey packer and manufacturer based in Onsted. The company bottles wildflower, clover, orange blossom, and raw honey, along with whipped honey and organic agave nectar, and holds USDA Organic and True Source Honey certification for traceability back to the hive. It's a processor more than a farm stand — most of its output goes to retail and food-service accounts rather than a farm store.

Taylor

Massab Acres is a greenhouse and nursery on Pardee Road in Taylor, stocking annuals, perennials, trees, and shrubs alongside mulch in multiple colors, topsoil, pea gravel, slag sand, and river rock.

The farm also grows a sunflower field for photo passes and a seasonal dinner event, plus hosts field trips, birthday parties, and fundraisers for local groups.

Dearborn

This listing's name matches the McFadden-Ross House, a historic home in Dearborn rather than a working farm. No current agricultural operation or visitor program at this address turned up in research — likely a data mismatch worth confirming locally before treating it as a farm stop.

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.
