Fall Flavor
Discover what’s in season at the Holland Farmers Market, open Wednesdays and Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Fall brings the harvest of pumpkins, squash, apples, potatoes, mushrooms, cornstalks, and more — all fresh from local farms.
Cozy up with a pumpkin spice latte or hot cocoa from one of the many stops on the Koffie Klomp coffee crawl (and don’t forget — visit five or more locations to win a prize!).
Fall is also when our local breweries come alive with seasonal flavors. Grab a Handcrafted Passport and make a day of exploring Holland’s breweries, wineries, and cideries. Collect 10 stamps and you’ll earn a prize — and maybe a new favorite drink (or two) along the way
Fall Color
Immerse yourself in Holland’s fall beauty with a hike up the 200+ steps at Mt. Pisgah. At the top of the climb, you’ll be rewarded with sweeping 360° views of golden dunes, Lake Macatawa, Lake Michigan, and the iconic Big Red Lighthouse — all framed by vibrant autumn color.
