Dogs and Donuts Fest Returns to Grand Rapids This Fall

If autumn leaves, warm cider, and furry friends sound like your kind of weekend, you’re in luck—one of Grand Rapids' sweetest fall events is back again in 2026.

Ed Dunneback & Girls Dogs & Donuts Fest 2026

Ed Dunneback & Girls Fruit Farm is once again rolling out the red carpet (or should we say, the red leash?) for its annual Dogs & Donuts Festival.

This pup-friendly party invites dog owners and their four-legged companions to enjoy a weekend packed with tasty treats, fall fun, and tail wags galore.

What You Need to Know

Dogs & Donuts weekend is the only time that dogs are permitted at the farm. Your dog must be on a leash and well behaved. It's your responsibility to clean up after your pup.

Oh, and if you love pickles, keep an eye out for Pickle Fest at the Farm next August.
