My dad, John Stover, used to take my sister and me on mountain bikes down this old rail to the Wooden Spoon in Concord for breakfast. We’d ride through Bunches of burrs and prickers and of course lots of mud! It was fun at the time, but I am also very content with the new much easier & smoother paved version at this point in my life. This is a great place to ride or walk/ run for all ages and ability levels. It is so nice not to have to worry about getting hit by a car!!! These trails are awesome and I love that Jackson continues to expand the trail system. I think it’s been a fantastic improvement to our community and has opened new and safe opportunities to get outside and enjoy nature. It is the best to see older and younger people out and about enjoying the trails. I included a painting I did about 10 years ago of my daughter and husband riding on this very trail, just west of Weatherwax Rd.

I went with my friends to have some mid-week fun and this was an amazing choice! The room we did was very interactive and just the right amount of difficulty! 10/10 would recommend!

We really enjoyed our visit. The lunch was new experience for us. They described it as a deconstructed sandwich. You made 7 or 14 choices from a long list of items. Wen it arrives your choices are arranged on a wooden platter and you pick it up and eat it in any manner you desire, enjoyed it greatly. Nice seating inside and out with some very pleasant views of the winery and Souther Michigan scenery. Also tasted their wine and purchased a couple of bottles which are also enjoyed greatly. Only disappointment was our rental car GPS could not find them so we had to have local assistance.

Our Airpark Tasting Room located in Jackson, represents flying, vintage airplanes and living in a home on a grass runway surrounded by tress. Our wines are offered for tasting in a beautiful Tasting Room overlooking the grass runway with the theme, open cockpit biplane logo on every bottle, being vintage aviation. Our Airpark location is know for it's relaxed atmosphere with an emphasis on personal attention~ With the desire to grow our own grapes, having outgrown the hangar and an abundance of requests to host weddings, buses, etc., we acquired 26 acres in Onsted for a vineyard and second venue. The theme, Lorenzo being an international airline pilot, is vintage airline with a 1974 German glider wing for a bar top, vintage destination posters heralding legacy airlines and will eventually dig a barrel cave into the side of a hill. In 2017 we opened Blue Skies Brewery at the new venue and have added hard ciders, a kitchen serving small plates and live entertainment on the weekends.

Beer, wine and pizza on the patio were great, with good distancing. The Aviation wine is the best Michigan wine anywhere.
