Marker-Miller Orchards

Where to Pick Your Own Apples and Pumpkins Near D.C. | Eater DC

"Five generations into its existence, Marker-Miller Orchards offers pick-your-own apples, pumpkins, and flowers. The 325-acre apple orchard was hit by hail this spring, so the fruit may have some small cosmetic blemishes on them. Owners say they still taste just as good, but they’re reducing the price for pick-your-own this year. Visitors can round out a full day of activities at the farm with wagon and cow train rides, and a trip to the playground. A Pumpkin Festival on Saturday, October 22 offers vendors, crafters, and pumpkin goodies like pies, rolls, bars, and doughnuts. About 85 miles from D.C." - Emily Wishingrad
