Catoctin Mountain Orchards (CMO).  There’s only one way to describe them.  They sell nature’s candy. I absolutely hate eating fruit.  I never ever buy fruit and don’t like to eat it.  I think it’s because I don’t like anything sour.  And if …

I love this place.  Whenever we visit my parents in Frederick I try to make a stop and get some fruits/veggies – and of course a pie. They have a great selection of fresh and local  produce and also an amazing bakery plus ice cream, cheeses,…

This place is located right off US-15 south of Gettysburg, so we stopped by on the way back to DC from PA.  It was apple harvest time so they had pick-your-own apples and a pumpkin patch.  The farm market was buzzing and had a wide selection o…

A favorite visit of ours every fall, this place has some of the best apple-based products around! At least once a year we’ll travel the hour up here to stock up on apples, apple pies, apple cider, and various preserves and snacks. Prices are fai…

This place has the best apple pie ever! You can go and get a frozen pie then bring it home and bake it yourself or if your real lucky you can get a fresh baked pie. They also have blackberry (I got one waiting in the freezer), peach, apricot,…
