AJ’s of Lachine

AJ’s Berry Farm is just off M-32, on Salina Road near Lachine. Obviously, AJ’s is more than berries this time of year. How exactly does AJ grow pumpkins this perfectly shaped? Of course he and his wife’s twin daughters (Rebekah and Remington) are sort of perfect looking too, but still. In season, you will find berries of all sort, cherries, plums, peaches, apples, beets, squash and other veggies galore. It’s known as a wonderful U-Pick for berries. Right now the pumpkins are in, all sorts of squash, the best prune plums on the planet and a little known Michigan delicacy, fall raspberries, that I hope to try next weekend. When you visit, check out their tasty jams (peach and apricot are my favorite). Definitely a family-friendly destination, including Hay-Ride Days in the fall.  And be sure to meet their three rabbits who must eat quite well indeed. I favor the one with the floppy ears.

  1. …@Little Miss Adventure…SUNFLOWERS…in a pumpkin display. Cool! No, I never heard of the Slindon Pumpkin display. Thanks!

  2. Those really are nice pumpkins! I had two pumpkin plants that we planted as seeds from Dow Gardens, but they were started too late. I’ve got a few pumpkins on the vine, but I can’t imagine they’ll ripen now that it’s gotten so cold at night. Better luck next year, I suppose!
