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.
  • Arrive earlier in the day for cooler weather and better selection during peak weekends.
  • Cash still helps at smaller stands even when cards are accepted.

“We just stopped yesterday on a whim... I regret getting a small bag of apples. I had the honey crisp and it was without a doubt the best, freshest apple I have ever had the pleasure of eating. I plan on stopping by again soon for a lot more!! Especially with the friendly people!”

“This is a wonderful orchard offering delicious on-site grown fresh fruits at reasonable prices. We have frequented their orchard for decades and appreciate the friendly Gardenhour family’s commitment to producing consistently outstanding fruit every year! They are the best!!!”

“Loved picking blueberries and black raspberries. Helpful, friendly staff wearing masks. Great outdoor activity with kids. Note for those who are older or have limited mobility - it's an orchard in a field - no benches or shade and uneven terrain. Highly recommend! Bring cash”

“Have be going there for 35 years off and on. Always a good product for a fair price. Super easy and fun to pick your own. Love the Stayman apples which are hard to find in grocery stores. The setting is lovely, as well.”

“Juiciest, sweetest and biggest peaches we've ever eaten! Drive from SW Pa every year (usually mid July) to get a few bushels. Very reasonable prices also.😊”

“Love picking apples over there . Staff is great and their apples are delicious.”

“Raciest staff and Not welcoming nature at all and also not kids friendly. We used to go there for last 12 plus yrs. But this time Behavior of that old person and his wife was very egoistic and arrogant. They make u feel like Apple Beggar. Not good behavior toward all race of customers. Recommend to go very happening place where staff people show some respect toward customers.”

“I ask for peaches that were just picked instead I got peaches that were a couple days old and were already smashes each other in box. $26.00 per box and I bought 10 boxes very disappointing I will fine somewhere else next year.”
