Berrien Springs

Berrien Springs

Forraht Farms is a three-generation family operation in Berrien Springs that opens each September and runs through October. The draw here is the grapes — nine u-pick varieties spread across the vineyard rows, plus pre-picked Bartlett pears and several apple varieties ready to bag and take home. It's a short season, so the fall window is the only time to visit.

The family orchard produces apples, peaches, nectarines, apricots, sweet cherries, and chestnuts, with sweet cherries ready in late June and apples holding through March.

Berrien Springs

The seasonal market sells farm-fresh produce for pick-your-own and retail during fruit season, with tastings and a wine club through the winery side of the operation.

Shafer Orchards has been in the same Berrien County family for three generations, though it now operates as The Shafer Farm LLC after the Shafers retired and leased the 72 acres to Doug and Suzy Forraht in 2017. U-pick runs five peach varieties in late July and August, then ten apple varieties and Concord grapes into September and October, alongside pumpkins, squash, and gourds.

Bridgman

Berry Lucky Farm is a six-acre blueberry operation outside Bridgman that's been in the family for generations, though u-pick only started in 2019.

The greenhouse opens the last week of April and stays open through October 31, with hours Monday through Saturday 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Sunday 10 to 5. It's more garden center than u-pick farm — the draw is plants and produce, not a fall festival.

Sandoval Farm runs u-pick strawberries, peaches, raspberries, blueberries, and sweet cherries near St. Joseph, along with an on-site beekeeping operation and a farm stand called the Fruit Shack. Hours and crop availability shift with the season, and online listings for the farm are sparse and inconsistent enough that calling ahead beats trusting any single source.

Sodus

Johanson's Apple World supplies fruit and vegetables in season from its Keehn Road location near Baroda, along with jams and jellies made on-site. The operation sells primarily as a supplier rather than a walk-in farm stand, so calling ahead is the reliable way to check availability.

Bredeweg Acres has run as a family u-pick blueberry farm since 1988, worked by Farmer Roger and Grandma Ruth Ann out of Stevensville. Picking season opens the first week of July, Monday through Saturday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.; bring your own container or use one of theirs. The farm also sells Christmas trees each winter and takes cash, check, or Venmo — no cards.

Buchanan

With careers in the floral industry, farming was a hobby for both of us, not a life plan. But feeding our family a healthier diet -- and eventually sharing it with our Chicagoland Community -- was. So, in December of 2012, with our two young sons Nicholas and Matthew in tow, we took a leap of faith, left our home on the Southside of Chicago, and moved into a charming little farmhouse with 20 chickens atop 14 acres of wooded hills in Buchanan, Michigan. In 2014, we bought our first 4 cows and a y
