There is a wide variety of fruits to pick
with little ones at this family farm in
western Howard County, Maryland.

Satisfy your sweet side with seedless
grapes, Asian pears and more than
a dozen varieties of both peaches
and apples. Outside containers are
not allowed, and social distancing
is observed. Families who picked
strawberries earlier this summer,
for example, were assigned a row or
location to pick. But expect plenty of
room to spread out. Check website for
hours and price ranges on all you-pick
produce. pickyourown.com

is open Thursday through Sunday, and
pumpkin picking will begin September
28. Expect a reservation system and
social distancing rules. No admission
