Farm & Grounds Lead

Who We Are

Our farm was founded over 25 years ago by John and Diane Bruinsma. What started as a roadside apple stand quickly grew into something bigger — a place where people could reconnect with nature and agriculture. Today, John and Diane’s three daughters, their husbands, and the amazing team at Greendale Acres work together to carry on the legacy of cultivating connection.

At Greendale Acres, our goal is simple: to create a space where people feel at home. We believe the farm isn’t just ours — we’re simply the caretakers. Over the years, some things have changed, but the roots of the farm remain the same. The old barn and apple orchard are still here, now surrounded by pumpkin patches, vibrant flower fields, corn mazes, animals, and endless opportunities for connection.

What hasn’t changed is our core purpose: helping families and friends make lasting memories in every season.
