A few minor downsides first: The museum's website isn't terribly informative about when the museum…read moreor the general complex of buildings is open. I spoke to a park employee when I was there and still wasn't able to get a straight answer. I did find out that if you want to set up a program for kids where they learn about pioneer life, including churning their own butter, then you have to make arrangements ahead of time, and that makes sense. It seems you can wander the grounds and look at the barn and the gardens and the outside of the various buildings from dawn to dusk in good weather. I'm still not clear on whether the museum has regular hours or if you have to call ahead to arrange a tour, though. The nice park employee I spoke to, though, did give me a full tour of one of the auxiliary buildings, between the museum and the barn. They have a really nice hall here that's often rented for weddings and wedding receptions, and they have a whole album of photos you can look at to see people who have used it before. The reception hall is up a flight of stairs, but they have an elevator for handicapped access. I loved this place and plan to go back to explore some more. I may have to borrow a friend's kid for a day and take him or her to one of the programs because they sound like a lot of fun.

It is so well taken care of by the owners and it shows! Mirela and George went above and beyond to make our day special and exactly how we wanted it. They are both so genuinely kind, and you can tell they are passionate about what they do. George was our officiant and did a perfect job. He met with us beforehand and went over the ceremony with us a few times leading up to the wedding to make sure it was exactly what we wanted. Our day was truly perfect and ran so smoothly, thanks to them and their amazing assistant Grace. I cannot recommend the Historic Blum Barn enough!!

They have extremely deep pond very close to the area where lots of children are. It doesn't feel very safe. I find that their bakery items are delicious and they have good coffee too . You can definitely feel religious undertones and not feel slightly strange to me, but I do enjoy the products that they make, and everybody is very kind . There are lots of fun places to take pictures in the flowers into tour the religious grounds.

The bread was very good, filled with Kalamata olives. The morning bun sort of reminded me of a croissant with cinnamon sugar in a spiral shape, it was decent, but I wouldn't get it again. The stand was very busy, they had a large variety of things, I wasn't able to check out anything besides the baked goods. Ok get bread again, next time I go to Eastern Market.

Everytime we passed their big red barn I would say, "I gotta go there and check it out!" And then I'd forget until the next time we drove by. I just always went by too late in the evening to do anything about it! BUT I finally found myself there during the day and now that I've actually been I'm so mad at myself for all the amazing things I've been missing! Upon my arrival I was greeted by a gorgeous horse and two shaved alpacas in a pen by the parking area. Upon further inspection I also saw several goats (including some youngins) and two very cute donkeys. All of them were so friendly and curious. Getting to pet cute animals? It was already a five star fave and I hadn't even gone inside! Eventually I pulled myself away from the cuties and went inside. There I found a wonderfully curated selection of locally made pantry goods for sale (some baked goods, jams, honey, snack foods, candy, coffee, pastas, etc) a few standing coolers of refrigerated and frozen goods like locally sourced eggs, dairy, ice cream, quiche, pierogi, dips and spreads, and more. And of course, the star of the show, their own selection of pasture raised and house butchered cuts of beef, pork, and chicken (alongside more processed offerings like sausages, brats, etc). It doesn't get much fresher, local, and sustainable than this, folks! And they have a massive selection to choose from, too. We had just started our recent heatwave and I had errands to run so I didn't want to buy a lot but I did get a frozen quiche, a package of whitefish dip, granola, a couple of small ice cream bars (might have eaten those in the car!), and some cheese curds. Luckily they had cooler bags so I added one of those to the order to help the frozen goods keep everything else cold. I plan on visiting again soon to pick up some steaks or ribs to throw on the grill, too. I can't wait to try their other offerings! Thrilled to have finally made it here and it will definitely now be part of our regular grocery rotation!

They answered all my questions right away and helped me with exactly what I needed. The first time I bought my meat I got beef for the whole week, eggs, local honey and clean ingredient chapsticks. Everything was absolutely amazing and today I stocked up on my chicken. Felicia, Jasmine, and Mike are awesome and they're a big part of why I chose to make this part of my weekly grocery stops. I couldn't recommend this place anymore

However, they made up for it with their customer service. Picking apples ended up being free! I still don't understand how the apples were a bad crop because they tasted fine to me and I didn't get sick from them. Our group didn't have enough cash to pay for all of​ us to go through the corn maze. Instead of denying us, we were offered to pay as much cash as we could. I know the circumstances will be different next year, but I'm excited to see what Coleman's will offer next fall.

All made wonderful by a September bright sunny day. Plenty of parking. A little drive from Ann Arbor/Ypsilanti but totally worth it.

Complete with historic farm house, barn, chickens!! This place is great for getting lots of outdoorsy photographs while still keeping guests like Grandma and Grandpa comfortable in air conditioned splendor. The price is really right and includes the use of their chairs, tables, and a small prep kitchen. You can invite your own catering (not forced to use theirs like many venues) So there again you can save some money without compromising any quality (i.e. no dry chicken dinner for $32ea) The barn is not as rustic looking on the inside it has exposed beams but white drywall in between which means you need to plan to use colored linens or something to add to the otherwise colorless room. They do however have it pre-lit with white holiday lights. Overall a great option for couples on a budget or conventions.

On 8/23/2021, they sent an email implementing new very strict covid protocols that pushed my daughter and her future husband to change EVERY EVENT DETAIL to have the event take place outside. Just 4 days later, on 8/27/2021 they received a second email, CANCELLING the entire event. Cobblestone personnel CANCELLED their wedding after the details to move everything outdoors had been successfully changed, just 15 days before their wedding date of 9/11/2021. Not only did they cancel the event 15 days before it was scheduled to happen, they did it by email on a Friday just before 5pm. No phone call, and at best a pathetic explanation as to why they felt justified to do so. The people that work at Cobblestone are selfish, unprofessional, and should not be employed at such a venue if they care so little for the community or customers they are serving. If you are thinking about having a wedding or event at an outdoor site in the Ann Arbor area, look anywhere else as Cobblestone Farm is a nightmare to deal with.

They have someone do it, and that person has a habit of grabbing the apples with his fingernails which cuts into the apples. ALL of the apples. This happened over two seasons. Several people I know have had this same issue. A group of about 10 people left the line when they noticed it happening. I would love to make this go-to orchard but because of this hygiene issue, I just can't. And in case you wonder-they've been told it's an issue. They don't care I guess.
