Agritourism & Farm Experiences near Fenton, MI

Fenton

Misty Meadow Lavender grows seven varieties of lavender on Hartland Road, opening the U-pick fields from May through August. The farm added U-pick sunflowers after opening in 2018. It sits off US-23 between Clyde and Center roads, a short detour for anyone driving north out of Fenton. Cash, Visa, and Mastercard are accepted on-site.

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.

Fenton

Maison Rouge Vineyard grows Marquette and Itasca — cold-hardy wine grapes bred for Michigan winters — on O'Connell Road in Fenton. The woman-owned vineyard opens for U-pick on fall weekends, typically 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. from late September into October, though hours shift with the crop, so checking Facebook before driving out is worth it.

Fenton

Spicer Orchards runs a farm market, cider mill, and winery on Clyde Road in Fenton, growing strawberries, cherries, raspberries, blueberries, peaches, apples, and sunflowers for u-pick. 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

LaFever Chestnuts has grown 350 chestnut trees across nearly 70 acres in Livingston County since 1997, making it one of the few U-pick chestnut farms in southeast Michigan. The harvest runs late September through early October, with staff on hand to show first-timers how to gather the nuts. The farm belongs to Chestnut Growers Inc., a 37-member cooperative of Michigan growers.

Argentine

Mueller's Orchard and Cider Mill has run continuously since the late 1880s, with the Mueller family at the helm since 1941 and now three generations deep on the highest point in Genesee County. The mill presses cider from hand-picked, in-season apples only — no drops — and bakes fresh donuts daily, including a seasonal pumpkin glaze in October. A remodeled barn adds ice cream and hot dogs, plus a corn maze and the Birchview Event Barn for private events.

Highland

Huff Tree Farm is listed on West Wardlow Road in Highland Township, Oakland County. The name points to a choose-and-cut Christmas tree operation, though varieties, hours, and season dates aren't published online.

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.

Holly

Diehl's Orchard & Cider Mill has run in Holly for 70 years, selling fresh-picked apples by the bag or in bulk starting mid-September alongside hot and cold cider and fresh donuts. There's no u-pick here, but the corn maze, hay maze, playground, and pond are free to visit, with hayrides at $3 and pony rides at $10. The mill runs daily through October, then weekends only into late November.

Holly

Mitchell Farm has worked the same 300 acres in Holly since 1838, growing soybeans, wheat, and corn as its main commercial crops. The farm market sells spring annuals, fall pumpkins from a u-pick patch, fresh donuts, and cider, with hayrides added for school groups each October. The market runs May through June and mid-September through October 31, daily from 10am to 6pm.

Grand Blanc

Simple Times Farm runs a working dairy, a community garden, and a farm market alongside its riding and boarding stables in Grand Blanc, just north of the Oakland County line. Youth riders compete through 4-H, PtHA, and APHA programs, and the farm adds a summer day camp for kids who want horse time without the competition circuit. Tours and public events run through the year on top of the boarding operation.

Highland Charter Twp

Oasis Acres Alpaca raises alpacas in Highland Township, in Oakland County's horse-and-hobby-farm country west of Detroit. A visit to a farm like this centers on meeting the herd rather than picking produce.

Holly

Oakhaven Farm is an agritourism listing on Grange Hall Road in Holly, in Oakland County. What the farm grows or offers visitors isn't available online yet.

Howell

Arthur Hazen started buying up land around Howell in the 1950s and 60s, and he and his son Dennis eventually planted more than 25 acres of blueberry bushes across it. 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.

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. Owners Kathy Aksten and Danny Meier run one of the better-known alpaca operations in the Midwest, and the ranch caters to both serious breeders and families looking for an afternoon around unusual animals.

Goodrich

Ortonville

Ashton Orchards sold market apples, peaches, plums, pears, sweet corn and pumpkins on Seymour Lake Road outside Ortonville for 59 years, pressing its own cider and baking donuts, pies and caramel apples on-site. The family did not reopen for the 2025 season, citing the owners' age and health. Call ahead before visiting — the future of the operation isn't confirmed.

Salem Township

Donahee Farms is a fourth-generation working farm growing broccoli, peppers, carrots, zucchini, onions, cabbage, lettuce, and potatoes for southeast Michigan. Rather than selling from the farm itself, they set up at the Ann Arbor Farmers Market (Wednesdays and Saturdays, 7am-3pm) and the Northville Farmers Market (Thursdays, 8am-2pm), along with flowers, hanging baskets, and fall pumpkins in season.

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.

Dexter

Frosty Apple sits at Mast Road and Walsh Road outside Dexter, west of Ann Arbor. The name points to a cider mill or apple stand, a common pairing in this part of Washtenaw County, though no further details are posted online.

Goodrich

Porter's Orchard has been in the same family since 1919, now run by a third generation on Hegel Road in Goodrich. The cider mill turns out fresh-pressed cider and cider donuts, the farm market sells raw honey harvested on site, and a corn maze, inflatable slide, and petting farm round out the fall visit. A pavilion is available to rent for events.

Northville

Three Cedars Farm sits on Six Mile Road in Northville, Michigan, in western Wayne County. Its former web domain is no longer active, and current activities and season aren't confirmed online.

Wolcott Orchard grows fruit on Coldwater Road near Mount Morris, Michigan, in Genesee County's orchard country north of Flint. No confirmed details on varieties or U-pick access are available online yet.

Davison

Uptegraff's Orchard is in Davison, just east of Flint in Genesee County. It's listed as an orchard and agritourism stop; no picking schedule, crop list, or hours are published online, so it's worth calling ahead before visiting.

Apple Lane Orchard sells u-pick apples, fresh cider, pumpkins and squash on North Center Road in Flint, along with baked goods from a local Amish bakery. A pumpkin patch runs in fall, and Christmas trees are cut later in the season, so the farm stays open well past a typical cider mill's closing date. It's a straightforward stop for cider and baked goods, not an attractions-heavy destination.

Northville

Willow Greenhouse is a nursery and greenhouse operation in Northville, on the western edge of the Detroit suburbs along the Wayne-Oakland county line. No confirmed product list, hours, or website turned up in research — call ahead before visiting.

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.

Corunna

Country Corn Maze is a seasonal maze on N Vernon Road in Corunna, Michigan, in Shiawassee County. Maze size, dates, and extra attractions aren't confirmed online yet.

Dexter

The Blast Corn Maze cuts a seasonal maze on Daly Road in Dexter, Michigan, in Washtenaw County west of Ann Arbor. Maze size, dates, and extra attractions aren't confirmed online yet.

Flushing

Coyner's Blueberries has grown blueberries outside Flushing since 1949, a small family farm that still runs u-pick hours from 9am to 5pm, closed Wednesdays and Sundays. The Lawrence family, who've run the operation since 2001, stick to natural growing methods on what's a modest, single-crop farm — no corn maze, no petting zoo, just rows of bushes and a bucket. Call to check on ripeness before driving out.

Plymouth

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.

Gregory

Degroots Strawberries grows strawberries in Gregory, in Livingston County between Ann Arbor and Lansing. No posted picking hours or contact information are available yet, typical of a small seasonal u-pick that runs on word of mouth.

Orion Charter Township

The Lake Orion Honey Company started as a hobby beekeeping operation in 2009 and now sells raw, unfiltered, kosher honey along with beeswax, queens and nucs from hives kept around Orion Township. The family also runs a honey bee and bumblebee rescue service, relocating hives instead of exterminating them, and treats their colonies with organic methods only. It's a small mom-and-pop outfit, not a packaged-honey brand.

Oxford

Eclipse Alpacas has raised alpacas in Oxford since 2001, about 45 minutes north of Detroit, and opens the farm for tours where visitors get close to the herd. The shop sells alpaca-fiber hats, gloves, socks, and clothing, and the farm also sells breeding stock with known genetics to other operations and shows animals at events around the country.

Plymouth

Denny's U Pick is a pick-your-own operation in Plymouth, on the western edge of metro Detroit. No independent website or current crop and hours information was confirmed in research — call ahead before making the trip.

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.

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.

Owosso

Owosso sits in Shiawassee County, mid-Michigan farmland between Lansing and Flint. Davis Family Farm is listed as an agritourism stop in the area; no independent website or current details were confirmed, so a call ahead is the surest way to plan a visit.

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.

Oakland Charter Township

Upland Hills Farm is a nonprofit educational farm on Lake George Road in Oxford, Michigan, built around hands-on visits with farm animals, hayrides, and a playground. It opens to the public on select summer Sundays from June through August and every weekend in October, and runs school field trips, birthday parties, summer day camp, and a horse camp. Pony rides and animal encounters are regular fixtures of a visit.
