Frederick

Summers Farm spent 25 years on the family homestead on Butterfly Lane before relocating four miles away to Middletown, where it now runs its fall festival for a 29th-plus season. The draw is scale: a corn maze that gets a new theme every year — 2026's honors Alex Ovechkin — plus jumping pillows, hayrides, and a pumpkin patch. A share of every ticket funds pediatric cancer research through the GR8 Chase.

Fall brings a corn maze and pumpkin picking, and the farm stand stays open for produce through most of the growing season.

Now in its third generation, this Middletown farm runs a Flower Festival through late summer before switching over to a Fall Festival built around a 6-acre corn maze and pumpkin patch.

Myersville

Scravel Creek Farm is a small family operation on Easterday Road in Myersville, run by Allen, Dee, and Scott.

Dickerson

Five generations of one family have farmed this stretch of Montgomery County's Agricultural Reserve since 1907, when Edwin and Minerva Horine first worked the land. Their son Phil planted the first peach trees during the Depression; his great-grandson Gene Kingsbury later spotted a mutation on one of those trees and turned it into Kingsbury Pride, a yellow freestone peach the orchard now grows exclusively. Season opens with cherries and apricots in June, then peaches, plums, and nectarines.

Full catering packages are available for private events, with booking currently open into 2028. Contact the farm at [email protected].

Mount Airy

Rock Hill Orchard pairs pick-your-own peaches, apples, and blackberries with something most orchards don't have: its own dairy herd. Woodbourne Creamery turns that milk into ice cream on-site, under the farm's own motto, 'From Cow to Cone.' It's one of the few pick-your-own stops in northern Montgomery County where the cows and the fruit trees share the same address.
