This is a smaller, but well-supplied farm stand, a REAL farm stand, on Bunker Hill Road in…read moreMiddletown. You turn right on Bunker Hill from 301 heading South, or you continue on Main Street (299) at the big intersection with 301 near Wawa and Lowes. About 3 miles down the road, on the right is a flag and you drive down a gravel drive to the farm stand behind strawberry fields and corn fields. The Filaskys grow table corn "John's Corn" which is sweet and delicious and always very fresh. They also have strawberries, including u-pick in season. The rest of the farm stand has jams, preserves, local and non-local produce and Woodside Ice Cream, which is a locally made dairy ice cream that is incredibly rich and good. My favorite items are the corn, tomatoes (perhaps not as good as the famous Jersey tomatoes) and their zucchini. One year, they grew a gray variety that was incredible, but I haven't seen it since. Perhaps gray zucchini didn't resonate with buyers but the squash is always very good. Peaches are also local, Delaware being a peach growing state that lost its status as a US Peach Capital after the Yellow Peach Blight of the early 20th Century. But you can still see the "peach mansions" in Middletown's pretty downtown area and off 301. In season, you will find flats of annuals and perennials. These are very healthy; I still have a clump of dianthus I bought a decade ago, going strong, and the begonias and impatiens are particularly good. The selection will depend on the growing season. This is a pretty spot, on a pretty road heading into Maryland and worth a detour, if you like farm stands. Just, have a cooler with ice handy because you'll really want to bring some Woodside vanilla ice cream home with you.

3.5 stars, rounded up…read more This spot is more of a outpost rather than a fully stocked farmers market. Therefore, don't expect an unlimited selection. However, they do have a number of items, including honey, jam, butter. In particular, the bacon here looked pretty good as well. One of the more important products this time of year (well, IDK when i'm going to publish this review, but I came here around early October) seems to be the pumpkins. They kind of have one of those things where you can pick out your own pumpkin in their pumpkin patch. The greatest thing about this place, in my opinion, is that despite kind of being further away from whatever one might designate as the city center out here... they take card! This was hugely appreciated, and enabled me to make my purchase, since I rarely bring cash around with me. This really pushes the 3.5 up to a 4.0

Went here on a hot September day. Entrance is $15 to do activities and see the animals. It was cool…read moregetting to see chickens, roosters, goats, geese, boars, and cows. We opted for the hay ride which was about 30 minutes. It was nice getting some shade from the trees on the ride. Unfortunately, the sound system kept cutting in and out so the educational presentation wasn't great. Had an apple cider slushie and it was quite refreshing. Didn't buy any produce or apple cider donuts, but they all looked pretty decent and the prices were decent as well, in comparison to DC grocery prices.

Fall, Lovers, here is why your next Pumpkin Farm visit needs to be at Milburn Orchard. Plenty of…read morefun stuff for the kiddos such as Pony Rides, Animal Feeding, Playground with Swings, Hayrides, Stackable Hay to Climb, Apple picking (additional fee), Corn Mazes and so much more. Customer Service-It was great!! All of the staff that we encountered were nice and helpful. Food *Apple Cider Donuts- THE BEST!!! Hands Down!!! I've been to a lot of pumpkin farms but baaaaaaby I have never tasted ACD like this. They had a nice crisp crunch on the outside and were soft on the inside. Oh, and they were HOT and FRESH!!!! *Caramel Apple Cider Donut Sundae-THE BEST!!! HANDS DOWN!!!! This is available at The Deck and you need to make sure you get one or maybe two because you won't want to share. Delicious vanilla ice cream at the bottom, apple cider donut. Then another layer of ice cream, topped with whipped cream and then a full donut and a caramel drizzle on top. You want one yet? *Freshly Squeezed Lemonade-It was loaded with bees around, but its delicious. Add Strawberry flavor and thank me later. *Kettle Korn-Popped Fresh on site, again hot and delicious Ambiance-Fall vibes Plenty of places for photo ops. Parking-Plenty of Free Parking on the lot
