Three weekends are left at the Fun Farm at Long Family Orchard &amp; Farm in Commerce Township, and Sunday, Nov. 1 is the last Fun Farm day of the year. If a pumpkin patch in Michigan is on your fall list, this is the stretch to go: Fridays 11am to 7pm and Saturdays and Sundays 10am to 7pm, with last admission at 6pm, through Sunday, Nov. 1.
The Long family has farmed this land on Commerce Road since 1876, and this is their 150th fall. The corn maze gets a brand-new design every year. The hayride runs out to the u-pick pumpkin patch all day, and you pick yours right off the vine.Dates and times

The Cider Mill at Long Family Orchard &amp; Farm in Commerce Township is open every day this fall, and you don't need a ticket to walk in. Hours are 9am to 7pm, Fridays from 7am, through Thanksgiving Eve (Wednesday, Nov. 25). It's closed Thanksgiving Day, and then it's closed for the season.

Donuts come up in their Google reviews more than anything else. One Google reviewer summed up a visit: "Very tasty cider and a great place to pick up pumpkins for Halloween."
What's in the barn:
<ul><li>Fresh-pressed apple cider, by the gallon or by the cup</li><li>Hot cider donuts in cinnamon sugar, made all day</li><li>Cider slushes</li><li>Already-picked Michigan apples, with varieties changing through the fall</li><li>Pure honey in glass jars, jams and apple butter</li><li>Breads and homemade treats</li><li>Pre-picked pumpkins out front, plus Bobby Long's mums, grown on the farm, when they're ready</li></ul><a href="https://longsorchard.com/cider-mill-donuts/?utm_source=patch&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=cider_mill_classified" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">longsorchard.com/cider-mill-donuts/?utm_source=patch&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=cider_mill_classified</a>Long Family Orchard &amp; Farm 1540 E Commerce Rd Commerce Township, MI 48382 (248) 360-3774 <a href="https://maps.app.goo.gl/uJAjhiNZZNqJF3RF9" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">maps.app.goo.gl/uJAjhiNZZNqJF3RF9</a>
