Their story:
the beginning
Spring 2019
It was an average Wednesday and Mike Petersen said, “I think we should bid on Tract 1 of the Klackle property” (full disclosure — April, his wife, said no thank you). That was the beginning of the adventure. By 6:30 that night the Petersens were the new owners of a 40-acre orchard, a 20-acre pumpkin patch and in total 75 acres of agri-tainment property. Prior to that day, they hadn’t even discussed purchasing it. But from that moment on they knew they were the right people to reinvent a beloved fall tradition in the West Michigan area.
“We are creating a space that celebrates tradition and inspires new memories. We value sharing a good beverage with even better conversation, simple wagon rides, meaningful moments and curated experiences.”
