our roots

In the 1950s and '60s, Arthur Hazen purchased 25 acres of land in Commerce Township, and 80 acres in Howell, Michigan. After clearing the land during evenings, weekends, and holidays, Art and his son, Dennis, planted over 25 acres of blueberry bushes and launched the future of Hazen's Farms.

Dennis continued to help his dad in the fields. While he was growing up, Dennis and the rest of the family would pick, clean, and package the berries for sale to large markets and local stores. As time passed, the farms consolidated in Howell and became strictly U-pick.

Throughout the years, Hazen's Farm has remained a family-owned business with Dennis's nephew, Tony as the current owner. For three generations, the Hazen family secret has been hard work, innovation, and a total commitment to our customers.

The family and employees of Hazen's Farm value your patronage, and we look forward to seeing you at the farm.
