In addition to pumpkins and the apple cider slush Richter craved, Papa’s offers fresh homegrown produce, ice cream, doughnuts made on-site, jams, relishes, fall flowers, farm animals, hay rides, a corn maze, mini train rides for children, and plenty of photo opportunities like photo cutout boards that preserve images of trips to the farm, located at 3909 S. Richter spent time volunteering at Papa’s through the CMU Health Professions College in 2019, before the pandemic, and discovered what Papa’s has to offer kids of all ages, and adults. Roughly 9,000 people saw the post, among them Jose Contreras, a CMU student from Waterford.Īlthough Papa’s wasn’t too crowded over Labor Day weekend when Richter, Contreras, Everitt and others spent time walking the property, as the air gets chillier and autumn sets in, the crowds will arrive for traditional autumn activities. She and a friend, Logan Everitt, recently made the trip a few miles from campus at the corner of Broomfield and Summerton roads, to get the treat. A variety of produce and specialty food products are sold during the fall season at Papa’s Pumpkin Patch. Richter, a Central Michigan University student, saw a social media post announcing Papa’s Pumpkin Patch was open, ready for autumn visitors and stocked with cider from Anderson and Girls Orchard to make the slush. Megan Richter couldn’t wait another day for an apple cider slush.
