Before you go

A short checklist so the trip feels easy — especially helpful for first-time u-pick visits in Maryland.

  • Bring closed-toe shoes, sun protection, water, and containers unless the farm supplies them.
  • Call or check the website for today’s picking conditions — mud, rain, and sold-out fields are common.
  • Wear clothes you don’t mind getting stained; berry juice and field mud travel home with you.
  • Cash still helps at smaller stands even when cards are accepted.

“I’m so happy we booked tickets for the last day of the fall festival. Online booking was easy and they just scan your phone at the gate. Only thing is I wished they had separate lines for prepaid tickets to make it move faster. Plenty of parking. Perfect family outing! Loved the goat feeding options but by the time we got there the goats were nice and full but still adorable. Lots of cool photo opportunities. The hay ride was cool. Very efficient with the multiple tractors. The food was decent but the donuts babyyy! Apple cider donuts were soft and fluffy (fresh). The candy apples were sold out. Definitely a place you want to take your family next season.”

“I went to the pumpkin festival today, it's a fun thing to do in family it works for all ages because they have one thing for everyone. They have reasonable prices. I got a whole meal for two people just for $20. Try their lemonade it taste like heaven. Their soft serve Ice-cream is really good too. Everyone is really kind and they love kids. They have more than 15 activities that kids, teenagers, and adults can enjoy. I'm 17 years old and today I had so much fun that I even forgot that I had a phone that's why you can't see all the activities in the photos.”

“We visited the farm on Sunday around 10:00 AM, and the weather was perfect—not too hot at all. My 6-year-old daughter had so much fun picking blueberries and exploring the farm. The blueberries were plentiful and easy to pick. One tip: arrive early! More and more people started coming as the morning went on, so we were glad we got there early and could pick before it became crowded. Overall, it was a wonderful family experience”

“Great local farm for the Germantown area! They host many events from festivals to Sunset nights throughout the year where people can come have a great time with family and friends. Its been a great experience for my family and I to come and pick fresh in-season fruits all while enjoying the different activities, the live music, and feeding the farm animals. This family farm is definitely worth checking out while in this area!”

“We had such a great blueberry-picking experience in DMV area! The farm was beautiful, fun place and perfect for a summer day. The blueberries were fresh and delicious, and the whole outing felt fun, relaxing, and family-friendly. We also loved the animal farm, the cute tractor ride setup, which made the visit feel extra special and memorable. A great spot for making sweet summer memories — highly recommend!”

“Love coming here with friends and family! The employees are so nice, the fruit and veggies are fresh and delicious. You get to see the farm animals, the fun activities and pumpkin picking! Also yummy apple cider drinks and donut, a lot to experience”

“A lot of fun for the entire family. I wish it were a tad bit cheaper for tickets but if you like to take the family our to the farm this one is a pretty good start. Make sure to understand that wearing high heels is ridiculous. Wearing anything that you would not want dirt, mud, farm animal dew or something dirty on it that the fabric couldn't servive in. Keep in mind weather and temperatures. They do provide food there and you can also picnic with your own preferred lunches. It is a clean farm with slides, hay rides, fun things for kids of all ages to do. The adults can have fun as well. It may be ok for the elderly if they can stay in the areas that don't require a lot of uphill walking if they can't do it. But there are benches. Always check online to see what the schedule is and hours of operation. They also have a market upon entering the farm so there are many things to become familiar with. You also can have complete fun there without the heavy lressure to actually buy things if it's just not in the budget. Have fun!”

“We visited this farm for strawberry picking and had a very disappointing experience. Most of the field appeared poorly maintained, with large areas covered by weeds and very few quality strawberries available for picking. Many of the berries we found were either extremely small, overripe, or already rotting on the plants. After spending time searching, it became clear that there simply were not enough good strawberries left in the field to justify the admission fee. What made the experience even worse was the staff's attitude. When we raised concerns about the condition of the fields, the response was essentially indifference. No one seemed interested in helping or addressing the issue. We understand that weather and growing conditions can affect a harvest, but customers should be informed when picking conditions are poor rather than being charged full price for fields that are largely picked over and poorly maintained. This felt less like a pick-your-own farm experience and more like paying to search through weeds for a handful of usable strawberries.”
