A Note from Annette and Randy:

As of November 9, 2011 The season at Fruit Acres Farm Market & U-Pick is over. Thank you very very much for a great season. My goal this winter is to get twitter & facebook to work properly for the business.

We will re-open in June 2012 with Fresh Local Strawberries. Right now Fruit Acres Farms has a adequate amount of rain and temperatures to produce a wonderful crop of fruit for 2012. We will let you know if anything changes in the winter or spring.

What do Annette & Randy do during the winter? Annette does paperwork, taxes, and computer work to catch up from the last several months. Randy and his helpers fix all the equipment that broke during the season, clean up the farm for the winter rest, figure out what we are planting in the spring, and in December will start trimming apple and cherry trees. We both attend farmer conventions during the winter, in December we will be at Grand Rapids, Michigan for the Great Lakes Expo. We do have plans for vacation in Bonaire to go Scuba Diving . It has been 3 years since we were diving and that is the longest we have ever gone. Because of the recession we are going cheap, but it is important for everyone to get away sometime. We look forward to a very relaxing winter.

Gas in Michigan is currently $3.49 gallon.

Fruit Acres Farm Market has been operating since 1964 in Annette's family. The market has been owned and operated by Annette and Randy Bjorge since 1978 (except being leased out 1991-1998). The Farm Market has helped several college students with tuition over the years including Annette and Randy.

CHEMICAL USE PRACTICES

  • We at Fruit Acres Farms use Integrated Pest Management (IPM) which means we only spray for insects according to their life cycle and if that insect has been spotted by scouting orchard. Scouting is done every few days.
  • Peach Pheremone for Oriental Fruit MothWe use pheremones when possible to eliminate or greatly reduce the use of chemicals for certain insects such as Oriental Fruit Moth, Codling Moth and Peach tree Borer. We participate in studies with Michigan State University for peach and apple to reduce chemical use as low as possible depending on the weather conditions that particular year.
  • Southwest Michigan unfortunately has too much natural insect pressure to farm organically on a commercial scale. The western states with their dry desert weather conditions are better suited for that possibility. If we could save alot of money and time by not spraying and grow a sellable fruit, we definately would.
  • Our Peches are not grown on genetically altered fruit trees. The new Stellar peach varieties are hand cross-pollinated on a mother tree to get the new varieties the same way breeders have been doing it for hundreds of years. There is no genetic manipulation in a laboratory.
