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.

Belding

Sparta

Heritage Blueberries grows about three acres of chemical-free blueberry bushes on Stebbins Avenue in Sparta, right in the Fruit Ridge growing region.

Check their Facebook page before driving out, since picking windows shift with the weather each year.

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.
