Groups Events

Come to the orchard for your group's next outing.

Church groups, scouts, civic clubs and family gatherings love our Apple Dome-a 36' x 48' tension fabric shelter that keeps you out of the wind and rain.

This large dome building is surrounded by apple trees-a great venue for an evening of friendship, song, and perhaps bobbing for apples. Call today to make your reservations: (989) 453-2851
