What started as just an 80 acre farm with an old barn is now a thriving specialty farm called "Heirloom Grove."
When Heirloom Grove CEO and owner Jaime Klumpp first discovered this 80 acre farm in Mt. Pleasant, Michigan, she knew it was meant to be. Nestled in the heart of the Great Lakes state, Heirloom Grove began as what could have appeared as just acres of farm dirt, and an old but sturdy barn. It had no name and no plan. But Jaime and her family had a vision for it.
"I began dreaming up the property - the rows of fruit trees, lavender, grapes, and perennial flowers we would be planting that would last generations, how we were caring for the soil, putting new love into the barn.. visualizing this beautiful 'grove' of a specialty farm - I sensed this was something we were not only creating for our family now, but would be here for generations after and become an 'heirloom' to pass on, a special place, that would become a beautiful long-lasting 'heirloom grove.'Â
As we then continued to develop the farm each year, we began to feel compelled that we couldn't just keep this special place to ourselves, and decided to begin sharing it with others too, inviting guests onto our farm during seasonal times of the year for U-Pick flower days, special events, barn venue rentals, photo passes, and more. Heirloom Grove has been such a blessing to our family, and we hope will also bless others when they visit.
