Best Places to Go Apple Picking In Maryland
Happy Fall Verbs! It is officially apple picking season, and it is time to pick apples in Maryland! Klay and I took our 3rd trip to the orchard to kick off apple picking season right. We didn’t want to go far, so we took a quick trip to Baugher’s Orchard in Westminster which is extremely close to Baltimore.
We had some of our friend tag along, and captured some priceless moments!
