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.

Hartford

Adams Blueberry Farms has grown blueberries in Hartford, in Van Buren County, since the 1870s, making it one of the older working farms in the area. The current generation runs both organic and conventional u-pick fields, plus pre-picked pints for anyone who'd rather skip the bucket. Maple syrup and aronia berries round out the stand.

West Olive

Crossroads Blueberry Farm is a fourth-generation operation on Lake Michigan Drive, best known for U-Pick blueberries at $2 a pound through the growing season. The market itself keeps longer hours than the picking fields — 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., six days a week — selling fresh blueberries, baked goods, ice cream, and its popular blueberry donuts. Visitors come from as far as Grand Haven, Holland, and Grand Rapids, with outdoor space and activities for kids.

Hudsonville

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.

Paw Paw

Mandigo Farms has grown strawberries in Paw Paw since 1955, one block from the public beach at Three Mile Lake.

Wholesale strawberries are also available.

Paw Paw
