Hunker

A berry farm on Stone Church Road in Hunker, in Westmoreland County southeast of Pittsburgh. Small fruit drives the season here: strawberries in late spring, then raspberries and blackberries through the summer. Pick-your-own farms in this area open their fields as each crop ripens and close them once it's picked out, so daily conditions matter more than a fixed calendar.

Greensburg

Lonesome Valley Farms turns its Greensburg fields into Valley of Terror each fall, a Halloween attraction built around a 5-plus-acre corn maze, a haunted hayride, and a haunted house and barn.
