Blake's Orchard and Cider Mill has been a family owned and operated farm since 1946. We now operate three separate locations in the Armada area consisting of approximately 500 acres of orchard and farmland. Over the years we have developed our cider mill and surrounding acreage to accommodate families and large groups to provide a relaxing and entertaining day in the country. We are now specializing in custom designed company picnics which are hassle free for the client. Blake's facilities and recreational areas have expanded to accommodate parties as large as 2000 plus people. We would like to offer this exciting and unique outdoor experience to your group. We would be happy to customize an event for your group's specific needs featuring great food and country fun!
