You might not want to dress up. You might not want to eat an apple pie. But there’s no way you can miss out on pumpkin picking in October, especially since we have so many rustic farms near our RESA apartments!
Pick out the perfect pumpkin from these pumpkin farms near home and make good use of it by cooking up a pumpkin pie or simply using it to decorate your RESA apartment. You’ll have your pick of the litter – literally – at these farms, which offer huge pumpkin selections.
Queen Anne Farm, located at 18102 Central Ave, Bowie, MD which will take you 35 minutes to arrive at by car, offers pumpkins ranging from two ounces to 200 pounds in their pumpkin patch, which visitors can reach through a tractor-pulled hay wagon.
Their pumpkin patch lets you enjoy nature at its finest while you explore seven varieties of the big orange pumpkins, as well as six different varieties of heirloom pumpkins that are everything from white to grey and bumpy to tall.
Montpelier Farms, located at 1720 Crain Hwy, Upper Marlboro, MD which is worth every minute of its 34 minute drive from home, has steadily grown since 2008 to a bustling farm with a corn maze, pumpkin patch, hayrides and more.
Outside of their fall festival, they are a real working farm! Whether they’re growing and baling straw and hay, planting corn, beans and pumpkins, producing their own vegetables, composting products or even making improvements to the land, they are working all year round at Montpelier Farms.
