About us | In 2011, parents of individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) formed AACORN Farm, Inc, now known as AACORN. The group dreamed of appropriate housing, meaningful work and therapeutic activities for adults with ASD in Southwest Michigan. AACORN stands for Adult Agricultural Community Options for Residential Needs, and a residential option is planned. Driven by the need to serve adults no longer in the school system, a program was the first focus. |
