Robinette's Apple Haus & Gift Barn - 3142 4 Mile Rd NE Grand Rapids MI - Truly a staple in Grand Rapids for family fun, authentic surroundings, and incredible food and produce. They've been carrying our products for a while now and you couldn't run into a nicer family owned business if you walked in every place in Michigan. Their donuts and pie are worth the journey - let alone all the other great stuff. They even have wine and a tasting room for us adults. When you need a pumpkin for Halloween make them the place to get it! www.robinettes.com

Dan and Patty Eycleshymer have been good friends of the Bearboy and all his creations for years now, so when they opened their store earlier this year they were the first to call to get our products. I know their business is brisk, but hey love to shoot the bull with good folks, so if you get a chance to drop in and check 'em out - tell them the Bearboy sent ya!
