My son has his birthday on Halloween, so the fall is very special for our family. Every year we look forward to enjoying the brisk weather and experiencing all of the farm fun that Maryland has to offer. Because of my little pumpkin birthday, we have been on a hunt for the best pumpkin patches and fall festivals in Maryland! Because this year is weird, we will also be doing some different things to make it fun without a party. Definitely check before you go because of updated rules. I think next I need to see who has the best pumpkin pie!
