Agritourism & Farm Experiences near Lansing, MI

Lansing

Spencer Farm's listed address, 601 North Cedar Street, sits inside Lansing itself rather than in surrounding farmland — a sign this may be a market stand, mailing address, or small urban growing plot rather than a traditional farm. No further details are published.

Lansing

The Michigan Grape and Wine Industry Council is a state-funded promotional and research board, not a farm or market — it directs a share of Michigan's wine tax toward marketing and vineyard research for growers statewide, from the Leelanau and Old Mission peninsulas to the southwest wine trail. There's no tasting room at its Lansing mailing address; contact individual wineries for tours.

Mason

Swallowtail Farm operates on Hagadorn Road in Mason, just south of Lansing, in the mixed row-crop and pastureland typical of Ingham County. No product list is posted online; the name references the swallowtail butterfly.

Onondaga

Balzer Blueberries picks blueberries on South Aurelius Road in Onondaga, a farm town south of Lansing. Season runs July into August. Hours shift through the week — weekday afternoons from 3 to 8pm, then a longer 8am-to-8pm window on weekends when the rows fill up.

Williamston

Gruber Raspberry Farm opens its rows to u-pickers in September and October, a later season than most Michigan berry farms. It's on Sherwood Road outside Williamston, a short drive from Lansing and Michigan State, and closes Sundays — call ahead to check picking hours before making the trip.

Haslett

This Clearview Orchards is an orchard outside Haslett, near Lansing in Ingham County — a different, unrelated business from the better-known Clearview Orchards in Watsonville, California. No local website confirms current crops or hours, so a call ahead is the reliable move.

Laingsburg

Peacock Road Tree Farm operates on its namesake road outside Laingsburg, in Shiawassee County. Beyond the name and address, little is published online about current offerings or hours.

Mason

Brimley's Pumpkin Farm is marking its 20th year on S. Every Road in Mason, Michigan, growing pumpkins mostly by organic methods. It's a low-key, self-serve operation — no attendants rushing anyone through the patch — with a farm stand and, new this year, a corn field walk. The farm takes cash, check, or Venmo only; no credit cards, and no change is kept on hand.

Eaton Rapids

Wilderwood Farm is a small agritourism property on South Canal Street in Eaton Rapids, in Eaton County's mix of row crops and livestock operations south of Lansing. No public listing of activities, hours, or products is available yet.

Potterville

Queen Bee Apiary keeps hives around Potterville and bottles raw and whipped honey, along with beeswax candles, lip balm, and honey soap. Registered as an LLC in 2021, the operation forages bees in unsprayed areas and skips antibiotics, with a stated mission of teaching visitors how to help honeybees survive, not just selling jars off a shelf.

Mason

Shawhaven Farm has worked the same ground in Mason since 1947, running pumpkin picking, hayrides, and a corn maze alongside a petting zoo of farm animals. A haunted attraction opens on the property for fall evenings, and farm-fresh produce is sold on site during the season. Some recent listings suggest the operation may now run under a different name at this address.

Leslie

Lechleitner Blueberry Farm grows blueberries on West Barnes Road in Leslie, in Ingham County south of Lansing. No posted picking season, hours, or contact details are available yet — call ahead to confirm the farm is open before visiting.

Eagle

The Huhn family has farmed the same land in Eagle Township since 1893, but the strawberry patch itself is newer — a tenth of an acre planted in 1999 that's grown into a full u-pick and pre-picked operation. Beyond strawberries, the farm sells asparagus, rhubarb, homemade jams, and local honey. The season is short, running early June into early July.

Dansville

Chapman Family Farm sits on East Dexter Trail in Dansville, a small Ingham County community south of Lansing. Details on what the farm raises or offers visitors aren't published online yet.

Charlotte

Country Mill farms 213 acres outside Charlotte, running u-pick apples, blueberries, peaches, sunflowers, and pumpkins from July through November. The farm presses fresh cider (hard and sweet), fries donuts and caramel apples daily, and bottles its own applesauce, apple butter, and vinegar. Wagon rides, a corn maze, and school field trips round out the fall season. Open Wednesday–Saturday, 9am–6pm; call or text 517-543-1019.

Charlotte

The Country Mill is a 213-acre orchard, cider mill, winery, and bakery in Charlotte, southwest of Lansing.

Ovid

Rusty's U-Pick operates near Ovid, in Clinton County's mid-Michigan farmland between Lansing and Owosso. The name confirms it's a pick-your-own operation; the crop and picking season aren't specified in any public listing.

Leslie

Klinger Blueberries grows blueberries near Leslie, in Ingham County south of Lansing. That's outside Michigan's major blueberry belt on the west side of the state, so this reads as a smaller family patch rather than a commercial operation — no picking calendar is published.

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.

Charlotte

Appleschram grows organic apples and pears alongside a long list of vegetables — beets, kale, garlic, peppers, squash, tomatoes — on Mount Hope Highway outside Charlotte. The farm also raises beef, chicken, pork, and turkey, and processes its own applesauce, bacon, ham, and maple syrup. Visitors can U-pick apples and pumpkins, and the farm sells through the Grazing Fields egg co-op and area farm markets.

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.

Charlotte

Pleasant Meadows Farms has tapped trees for maple syrup since 1921, making it one of the older syrup operations in mid-Michigan. The Charlotte farm bottles 100% pure Michigan maple syrup from its own trees rather than buying in bulk sap, and takes phone orders for specialty items.

Charlotte

Randy Cook Farm is based in Charlotte, the Eaton County seat southwest of Lansing. It's listed as an agritourism destination; no website or social page describes crops, animals, or visiting hours.

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.

Becks Cider Mill sold apples, tomatoes, pumpkins, and squash on West Maple Rapids Road near St. Johns, with a cider press and hayrides as part of the fall visit. Multiple grower directories now list the mill as permanently closed, so check before making the drive.

Uncle John's Cider Mill is a five-generation family farm in Saint Johns, north of Lansing, built around fresh-pressed cider and donuts. The Pie Barn sells pies, jams, and cider slushies; the taproom pours hard cider, wine, and spirits Friday through Sunday. Kids can pan for gemstones, bounce on the jumping pillow, or walk the farm trail. Open May through December. Call (989) 224-3686.

Charlotte

Atlas Orchards is a family-owned fruit farm on Maurer Road in Charlotte, growing blueberries, peaches, and apples. U-pick blueberries and an on-farm market are the main draw, and the farm takes cash, check, CashApp, PayPal, or Venmo at checkout.

PeePaw's Pumpkin Patch is a small, locally owned pumpkin patch on South Bradley Road in Bellevue, built around an afternoon of family activities rather than a large commercial operation. The farm keeps its following mostly on Facebook, where more than 1,800 people track seasonal updates and hours.

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.
