Michigan Berry Spotters
and the U-Pick Rush Worth Planning Your Summer Around

Berry season in Michigan moves fast—strawberries first, then raspberries, then blueberries rolling deep into summer. The challenge isn’t just knowing where to go; it’s knowing exactly when to get there. That’s where Michigan Berry Spotters comes in: helping berry hunters catch peak fruit before another season slips away. Below are just a few of the berry patches in our area. To find out what’s ripe and ready, join the Michigan Berry Spotters Facebook group, and be sure to share photos and stories from your own berry-picking adventures—including favorite hotspots and snapshots of your haul—to help support local farmers.
