Over the years, we've done apple, strawberry, and blueberry picking here, but the fall pumpkin festival is the best. There are tons of activities for the little ones - hayrides, a corn maze, farm animals, and more. Tubby's BBQ is on-site if you need lunch. The line can be long, but it moves quickly. It is on the pricier side, but well worth it. The farm is beautiful, the experience is fun, and it's a wonderful way to get the kids outdoors.

The property goes on and on--plenty of room for kids to run, adults to exhale, and everyone to claim their perfect apple-picking spot without bumping elbows. The apple selection is top-tier: crisp, plentiful, and varied enough to make you rethink your recipes. Whether you're team Honeycrisp, Stayman, Fuji, or "I just want the prettiest one," they've got you covered. It's an excellent family outing--easy parking, nice country store organized staff, scenic views, and cute working farm charm. A Maryland must worth returning to every fall.

The hike to the orchards could be a bit, but they have tractors during high season. Pickings depends on how the crops are doing and how picked out they are.

Ended up having to purchase tickets a week in advance. There is lots of parking on site. There is a lot to do outside of the corn maze itself. There were pony rides, zip lines, slides, swings, a hayride and more. The corn maze was a lot of fun because there are locations in the maze that you have to find and you use an app on your phone to track your progress. They have food trucks there and my daughter and I enjoy our guilty pleasure....funnel cake!! Overall we had a great time and will definitely go again next year.

There were lots of activities, like…read morewatching farm animals (goats- including baby ones!/kids, cows, bunnies, and chickens), walking to the pumpkin patch, walking around ponds, and enjoying a pizza snack in the picnic area. They also had hay rides but we didn't go because it was a little too sunny for our dog. Everything was free, which was nice! Very free form and you can walk around everything easily. There is also a big farm store in the center with pumpkins, mums, apple cider donuts, pies, jams, etc! The driving is one way so it's easy to get in and out of the farm. The pizza was tasty and ready in 5 min because they precooked the dough. I was hesitant about that technique (never seen pizza dough cooked and stacked like pita bread), but it had a nice crunch and the tomato sauce tasted pure. $23 for credit, $20 for cash. Overall, a nice experience and felt more rustic than more commercial farm places!

The farmers were knowledgeable and friendly teens/young adults. They were very sweet to the children and ensured that all the kids could pet the baby goat born that week. The best part of our visit was being followed around by Dolly, a goat that roamed the premises, scavenging for leftover corn and dropped treats.

This year, they had a great deal on Groupon, which comes with a tractor ride around the farm. There's plenty of animals to look at, from baby pigs, horses, donkeys, turkeys, goats, a camel, dogs, etc. Friendly staff, clean bathrooms (yup, you heard that right), and plenty of places to sit to snack. I've also seen a few families host birthday parties here!
