Kuipers Family Farm in Maple Park is a seasonal farm attraction where visitors pick their own apples and pumpkins across acres of farmland. The U-Pic Apple Orchard invites guests to stroll through trees and harvest fruit directly. The Pumpkin FunFarm spans acres designed for all ages, offering outdoor activities centered on the fall harvest season. The farm's Orchard Shop and Bakery stocks hundreds of specialty food items alongside a Sample Kitchen for tasting. Fall Flower Fields showcase the sights, smells, and tastes of rural agriculture. The property hosts live shows and bands throughout its operating season. School groups can arrange field trips to connect with agriculture, while private events and tours accommodate larger groups. The farm operates seasonally, with a Spring Tulip Fest and Mother's Day Weekend Fest during other months. Tickets are sold online through the farm's website.
Hours: 9am – 6pm and 10am – 6pm (varying by day)
