Please try these Awesome Filets for they MELT in your mouth so very tender and juicy. We crave these and have to have them at least every other week or more, they are just plain Fantastic!

We loved this orchard SO much!…read more I couldn't believe the amount of fun, free entertainment packed into this farm. We ended up spending nearly three hours bopping our way between activities and snacking. We enjoyed cider, a variety of donuts (including apple cider and pumpkin with cream cheese icing), a big ole bag of "seconds" apples that were in great condition, paid for the four wheeler/train ride through the peaches and much more. The kids especially loved the goats, slide, tractor ride through the property and corn "Sand box". Bathrooms and snack stands were plentiful and clean throughout the front portion of the farm. The staff was all very engaged and friendly as well. I loved that this spot didn't feel cheesy or over commercialized like some orchards can become. It was truly perfect. Can't recommend it enough.

I've been to Schwallier's a couple times now and have had a lovely experience each time! If you…read moredon't get there right at open (or close to it), parking will be very hectic. While they have someone guiding you most of the time, people visiting are not always the most mindful and don't let you out to give up your spot. There is only one entrance/exit for cars, so I think they need to be a little bit more upfront with the flow of traffic and constantly have someone guiding everyone to ensure that parking isn't backed up. There are pumpkins, tracker rides, a little parade car for kids (and adults can fit too) and a play area for the kids. I think it's the perfect place to grab donuts, cider, pick some apples and grab your pumpkin. Just be warned that some areas may be more hectic than others, but that's what you get with a sunny October weekend!

I am very disappointed that I got up early to pick strawberries at Krupp's . I was given a row that…read morehave few berries of any size .

It's not summer in Michigan until you've picked ten pounds of strawberries. I love going to Krupp Farms as they are the cheapest I've found locally--in 2019, $1.85 per pound for u-pick. They're also super friendly and guide you through the process if you've never been. We've been having tons of rain and the farm was a bit wet, so there was someone guiding people where to park based on the AWD status of your vehicle. This was super helpful as I've definitely witnessed people getting stuck in mud before, not fun. After I parked, I followed the crowds and was instructed to grab a cardboard tray and holder, then I was directed to another employee at the end of a row. She showed me where to start picking and gave me a flag to stick in the row when I was done to show where I left off. It's a good system so that everyone is able to get the most ripe strawberries! Speaking of ripe, the strawberries I picked were completely red throughout; they don't even have the white hull that most strawberries have. Amazingly sweet and juicy! I picked ten pounds in about an hour, then went to pay. They weigh your container and accept cash, debit cards, and checks (no credit cards). The women running the card machine reader were super friendly and fun to chat with as they waited for it to connect. The container they give you to hold your berries while you're picking is yours to take home and didn't cost extra; other farms I've looked at charge extra for containers. The farm also has a petting zoo, playground, and an ice cream shop, which makes it a great destination for people with kids. Be sure to watch their Facebook or website for updates each day for picking status; it changes day to day based on how the berries are ripening. You can also get asparagus, rhubarb, and raspberries!

We came for lunch on our way home from Grand Rapids on Sunday, 7/26/26 around 12:15pm. There were…read morequite a few people, but it wasn't crowded. This was our first time here - but it will NOT be our last. I loved everything from the moment we set foot on the property. It is genuinely rustic, not artificially so. Everyone we encountered that works here was friendly and seemed to like their jobs! We didn't know before we got here but it is Blueberry Festival this weekend and there were blueberry themed drinks and food. They had free samples of blueberry soda, blueberry lemonade, blueberry jam and blueberry buckle and fresh blueberries! We tied all of it and it was all delicious! The lemonade was one of my favorites. We wandered the store for a bit and I think I'll end up taking one of everything I saw. I think I said "oh! I want that!" to AT LEAST 15 things. We had the 2 blueberry special drinks - blueberry lemonade mimosa and the blueberry frosé, we really enjoyed both. To eat we shared the BTB - which was another blueberry special. Brie, turkey and fresh blueberries on sourdough. I really liked it! I wish the blueberries had either been jam or some other sort of spread/compote instead of the whole blueberries. They kept rolling out of the sandwich haha. But the flavor combination was wonderful. The turkey and the sourdough were both grilled, which I made me real happy. Oh! The sandwich came with kettle chips that were the best kettle chips I've ever had - Which reminds me I was going to grab a bag to go and I totally forgot! We also had the Farmer's Daughter pizza which was awesome. Crispy crust on the bottom, but fluffy and light on top. Just the right amount of sauce and the toppings were great. We had the Oreo shake as well, also tasty! It melted quick! It was a pretty toasty day without much breeze. We ordered some donuts and a cinnamon roll to go, I'll have to review those later when we eat them - I'm too full right now! They have a pickle fest coming up next weekend and I want to go back! Everything about the farm was charming and we had a great time. Highly recommend!

There was no cost to enter on weekdays, making it a more accessible and fun activity. There is a large area with food, drinks, doughnuts, and other food and accessories. There were all sorts of options for people of any age and palate. I didn't end up picking any fruit but we did get to visit the animals and walk around. I had no idea that they had a variety of animals like cows, goats, and more. The staff were incredibly warm and friendly and there was a lot of available parking. I definitely think this is a fun place to bring a family or go on a date.
