Our taproom features our Hard Cider, Wines and Spirits. While visiting, you can try our ciders & wines by ordering a flight! We also have seasonal live music and drink specials.
All of our retail barns hold a specially curated selection of gifts. Whether you are looking for a souvenir, snack, something for the home or yourself, we have something for everyone!
Spend some time outside and relax with live acoustic music. Be sure to check our calendar for our schedule.
Farm Trail
Walk, run, cycle – just get out and enjoy. We have created a “farm trail” that will take you around our farm, where you can see the different crops and orchards. Each time you visit, you will see a different stage of growth or harvest. The trail is a mix of gravel, grass, pavement, hills and flat. Challenging but fun!
Corn maze
Visit our 5-acre corn maze! Each year, we pick a new design to fit the space and add a new challenge. Generally the maze takes approximately 45 minutes to complete and parents MUST accompany their children. $4/person. 2 and under free. Check the calendar for September and October availability.

Watch Us Make Cider
Our cider is made from 100% hand harvested apples and is not pasteurized. To keep it this way, we must follow a seasonal need-based pressing schedule which means we DO NOT press cider every day. We press the majority of our cider during the months of September & October. The best days to watch are “usually” Saturday & Sundays with a random weekday or two. If you are planning your visit around the cider press operating, we suggest you call first.
1. Only hand picked select Michigan Apples are used.After the apples are picked, they are soaked in a mild Chlorine Dioxide solution. This solution is very similar to water treatments used in city-water systems for drinking.
2. After the apples soaked, they are scrubbed and rinsed in fresh water. After this sanitation process is complete, the apples ride up a conveyor belt to the “Hammer Mill” where they are chopped into small pieces.
3. Once the apples are chopped, they are squeezed by a series of belts which apply constant pressure to the chopped apples. We now have cider!
4. After the cider is squeezed from the apples, it runs through another filter, which takes out any remaining seeds, or large pectin particles. Once the cider passes this filter, it is immediately collected in a refrigerated stainless steel tank.
5. Once in the refrigerated tank, the cider will sit for 24 hours then be lab tested. From there it is pumped to our bottling line, where we package in gallon and half gallon containers.
6. Once bottled, the cider is yours to enjoy. Don’t forget the donuts!
