Agritourism & Farm Experiences near Gettysburg, PA

Gettysburg

Destination Gettysburg is the official tourism bureau for Gettysburg and Adams County, based on West Middle Street. Rather than a farm, it promotes the area's battlefield, orchards, wineries, and farm stands to visitors and publishes trip-planning resources. It works as a clearinghouse for local agritourism and events.

Gettysburg

Old Sword Farm sits on Hanover Road just east of Gettysburg, in Adams County's fruit-and-farm belt southeast of the battlefield. Little about its crops or visitor activities is posted online. Confirm hours and what's available with the farm before making the trip.

Biglerville

Littlestown

A family farm on Basehoar Road in Littlestown, in southern Adams County near the Maryland line. The surrounding countryside mixes grain, livestock, and fruit farms within Pennsylvania's apple belt. The listing marks it for agritourism, so it may run a seasonal stand or on-farm activities; contacting the farm directly is the best way to confirm the details.

The Historic Round Barn is a 1914 wooden round barn on Cashtown Road near Biglerville that now runs as a farm market. Shelves inside carry Adams County apples and peaches, sweet corn, local produce, jams, and baked goods through the growing season. The building itself, one of few true round barns left in Pennsylvania, draws visitors as much as the fruit does.

Hayrides, a zip line, and a corn box round out the day.

It sells produce and free-range eggs on a pay-what-you-can basis and opens its pond, stream, and pasture to walking trails and tent camping through Hipcamp, which Outside Magazine once named the best campsite in Maryland.

Email or call to set up delivery.

A small agritourism spot on Half Mile Drive in Gardners, the center of Adams County's apple and fruit belt north of Gettysburg. This region grows more tree fruit than almost anywhere in Pennsylvania, and nearby stands sell apples, peaches, and cider through the late-summer and fall harvest. Details on this particular farm are thin online, so a direct call is the best way to confirm what it offers and when.

Hanover

Thurmont

Pryor Orchards grows peaches, apples, pears, cherries, apricots, plums, prunes, and nectarines on Pryor Road outside Thurmont, at the foot of the Catoctin Mountains, along with nuts and homemade jellies. Confirmed contact details beyond the crop list weren't found online; check locally before the drive out, since availability shifts fruit by fruit through the season.

Marston

Shady Hill Farm & Orchard sits off New Windsor Road outside the small Carroll County crossroads of Marston, in Maryland's fruit-growing Piedmont uplands. Categorized as an orchard operation, it doesn't maintain an active website or social page — check with Carroll County's Ag Center for current picking hours.

Manchester

Cornfusion turns Quality Evergreens' Christmas tree farm in Manchester into a fall maze destination, with more than 40 activities under one armband price, including apple slingshots, a cow-belly bounce, and gem mining.

Manchester

Westminster

Days Inn Westminster is a Wyndham-brand hotel on South Cranberry Road — not a working farm, so its agritourism tag appears to be a data error. It sits about halfway between Gettysburg and Baltimore's Inner Harbor, within driving distance of Baugher's apple orchard and Serpent Ridge Vineyard, which makes it a lodging option for people touring Carroll County farms rather than a farm itself.

Smithsburg

Round House Farm sits on Ringgold Pike outside Smithsburg, in Washington County's Cumberland Valley farmland near the Pennsylvania line. No working website or social page turned up for the farm, so its current offerings and hours aren't confirmed online.

Mt Airy

Airy, brewing year-round beers like Stairway IPA and Coppermine Creek Dry Stout with Maryland-grown hops alongside farm wine and hard cider.

Manchester

Guests fly fish the creek, book spa treatments, catch shows at the Playhouse, and stay in cottages or a stone mansion across roughly 57 wooded acres.

Myersville

Spruce Run Farm started as a family homestead in 2006 and has grown into a small livestock and produce operation raising goats, sheep, pigs, and poultry alongside honey and seasonal vegetables.

Dillsburg

Moose Ridge Alpacas keeps a herd on Old York Road just outside Dillsburg, in the rolling farm country between Harrisburg and Gettysburg.

Mount Airy

Char-Lene has farmed 400 acres of beef and row crops in Mount Airy for more than 50 years, and the year-round market sells hormone-free beef, pork, and honey straight off the property.

Carlisle

Pick-your-own strawberries on West Lisburn Road in Carlisle, in the Cumberland Valley southwest of Harrisburg. The season here generally opens in late May and lasts three to four weeks, depending on spring weather. Farms like this one post daily picking conditions and field openings by phone or social media, since a hard rain or a hot spell can change what's ready overnight.

Dillsburg

McCurdy's Tree Farm sits on Chestnut Grove Road in Dillsburg, York County, in the rolling country south of Harrisburg.
