Review:

Catoctin Mountain Orchard was founded in 1948 by Harry Black and Iran Kelbaugh, located along Maryland Route 15 just north of the city of Thurmont, MD. The farm and orchard facility, which stretches across 100 acres, produces a wide variety of fruits and vegetables throughout the year, ranging from apples, cherries, and peaches to kiwi berries, nectarines, and black raspberries. All produce is cultivated to take advantage of the rich soil composition and terroir of the Eastern Appalachian range. An open-air market has been operated since 1983, selling produce throughout the year in season in a temperature-controlled environment. A cut-your-own-flowers area is also offered, along with a family-friendly playground and a bakery selling home-cooked baked goods.
