Produce Farms near Caledonia, MI

Alto

Wildwood Berry Farm grows berries on Snow Avenue in Alto, in Kent County's fruit country southeast of Grand Rapids. The name points to a u-pick or berry-stand operation, though no season dates or hours are posted publicly yet.

Dorr

Beard's Produce has grown fruit and vegetables in Dorr since 1963, with u-pick and pre-picked strawberries, blueberries and sweet corn from May through August. The farm asks visitors to leave pets at home in the u-pick fields. It's a family operation on 140th Avenue that's stayed in the same business for six decades without turning into a fall-festival attraction.

Grand Rapids

Ridgeview Blueberries grows a longer list than its name suggests — blueberries, yes, but also beans, corn, cucumbers, peaches, peppers, raspberries, squash, strawberries, and tomatoes, all open for u-pick outside Martin in Allegan County. It's the kind of farm where the picking calendar runs from early summer straight through Michigan's short growing season, one crop taking over as the last one finishes.

Belding

Rockford

Trapp's Berry Farm sits on Tiffany Avenue NE outside Rockford, listed in state agritourism directories as a produce operation. Little else about hours or current offerings is available online, which is common for small berry farms that sell mostly by word of mouth.

Rockford

Hastings

Kendall's Blueberries grows and sells blueberries in Hastings, in Barry County's mix of farmland and lake country between Grand Rapids and Battle Creek. No hours, pricing, or contact details were verifiable online — call ahead during blueberry season, typically July through August.

Hudsonville

Bremer Produce runs one of the largest u-pick sunflower fields in the Midwest, alongside cosmos, zinnias and dahlias, on a family farm in Hudsonville. Picking works on a self-serve, honor-system basis — a bouquet with vase runs $12, and admission itself is free. It's built around flowers, not fruit, which sets it apart from most u-pick stops in the area.

Otsego

Rockford

Sandy Bottom Berries is a small, family-run u-pick farm on Sandy Bottom Road in Rockford, growing blueberries and raspberries pruned low enough for kids and older pickers to reach by hand. It's a no-frills operation — no corn maze or gift shop, just rows of berries and a scale — with Klackle Orchards and Good Land Growers a short drive away for anyone making a day of it.

Sparta

Heritage Blueberries grows about three acres of chemical-free blueberry bushes on Stebbins Avenue in Sparta, right in the Fruit Ridge growing region. It's strictly u-pick, open to all ages, and the owners post picking updates on Facebook rather than keeping fixed hours — check there before heading out.

Allegan

Forstner has grown blueberries in Allegan since 1951, more than 70 years under the same family. Berries come u-pick or pre-picked, in pints, quarts, 2-pound clamshells, or 5-pound boxes, with peak season running July through mid-August. They run specials on Wednesdays and ask that large orders call ahead — the same practice they've followed since long before most of their current customers were born.

Coopersville

Cook's Strawberries grows strawberries outside Coopersville, in the Ottawa County farmland west of Grand Rapids. Michigan's strawberry season runs short and early, typically through June, and the name points to a seasonal u-pick or roadside stand rather than a year-round operation.

Hamilton

Belding

Bird Berry Farm, run by Randy and Sarah Schmid in Belding, sells strawberries and blueberries u-pick or already picked from June through August. There's no frills here — no corn maze, no bakery — just two crops grown well and sold straight off the farm. Check their Facebook page before driving out, since picking windows shift with the weather each year.

Coopersville

Lindberg's Blueberries grows fruit on 84th Avenue outside Coopersville, offering both U-pick and pre-picked berries by the five-pound box. July and August hours run Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Saturday until 5 p.m.; the farm is closed Sundays. A picnic area sits alongside the fields.
