What we cannot answer here yet
Fewer than 5 farms in Michigan publish their own dates for apple picking, sunflowers, Christmas trees, so there is no honest answer to give for those. We would rather say that than print a national average and call it local.
How these dates were collected
These figures come from prices and dates published by the farms themselves on their own websites, collected and re-checked by Bloom and Pick. Every farm in the count links to the page the figure came from and the date we last checked it. Farms that do not publish a price are not counted, and are named separately so you can see who is missing. Farms that publish prices online tend to be larger and more visitor focused than farms that do not, so these medians likely sit above what a typical small farm charges. We report medians and ranges, never averages, and we state how many farms are in every number. Nothing here is estimated, modeled, or filled in.
