Macomb County’s Must-Do Fall Activities for Families

Are you looking for something fun to do with your kids this fall? Macomb County may be the perfect place for you to get outside and enjoy everything that this season has to offer.

You can start your family’s fun at one of the community farmers markets, which offer all kinds of festive fall foods, like pumpkins and gourds, and handmade wares from local creatives.

After that, you can hit up a local apple orchard to score some delicious cider and doughnuts — or if you’re feeling spooky, one of the many Halloween-themed shows and festivals.

Take a look below for information on the family fall fun coming up in Macomb County this year and start planning your family’s next outing today!

Cider Mills and Apple Orchards

Apple and pumpkin picking, corn mazes and farm activities are primo options for family fun this time of year — and Macomb County’s seven orchards deliver with all that and much more.

Stop by Big Red Orchard and Cider Mill in Washington for u-pick apples and pumpkins or Blake’s Big Apple in Armada for its Funland and haunted attractions.

Stony Creek Orchard and Cider Mill is where you’ll get a peek inside life on the family-owned farm and Westview Orchards and Cider Mill is known for its yummy baked goods.
