    Maryland SummerFest - Sampling Waters orchard ciders

    WOW!! This event has changed since the last time we were there. It's much larger now and not…read morefamily friendly like it used to be. First thing I noticed was they "ran out " of handicap parking spots!! Not off to a good start?! They then send you to the next row which is a good large field away & find a spot. I'm sorry but I can't walk that far and I need to be dropped off. That's fine, and as we pass the designated handicap parking lot I notice that it's not full and there's plenty of parking available for the handicap. My placard displayed in window. They aren't using them now because they are waiting for a group!!?? Ok. 1/5 for NOT being handicap accessible. Train the people to address the situation and offer to let them be dropped off..they didn't. They only said go to the end of the row and park. My husband said my wife is handicapped and she can't walk that far and the guy replied something like well it's full and you have to go, keep traffic moving !?!? Where are they going? Way down yonder in the far pasture and they might be here before dark. Very disappointing for a state run affair on a day dedicated to military and first responders would be so unorganized. From running out of handicap parking spots (lie-from volunteer) and run out of drinks before an hour had passed. Second, found one of my favorite foods! Açaí bowl. Can't drink on an empty stomach, no hangovers here ! Overall I think this event was oversold on tickets and the vendors were not prepared for for the increase in number of people. The lines were very long at lunch time which is when we were there and I noticed right after they were done everyone disappeared. I also noticed for such a large outdoor event they didn't have any water stations. If you were thirsty than you bought water or something else. I wanted water. I did find some cute gifts for my mom & some other ideas for my crafting. Despite the heat, crowds, long lines, miscommunication and everything else I had a decent time. But I can always make something boring into fun:-). Maybe next year will be better?!

    *Secret Garden Arts, Music and Wine Festival Review*…read more I visited a few days ago for this festival! I only recently heard of this event but glad I attended. It was a decent size crowd (not like the Linganore Reggae Festival) but that was a good thing (for me at least). This was my first "big" event since pre-covid! There was a line to get into the festival so word of advice - go early. Even though it was starting at noon, I'd suggest going at least an hour before so you're not in the line for too long and you get to pick your spot to set up. There's folks directing you where to park! They will scan your tickets and check your bags, lawn chairs and other belongings for contraband (weapons, drugs, outside liquor)! You're allowed to bring non-alcoholic beverages and food but no liquor! Don't bother because they thoroughly check and I saw lots of liquor being confiscated!!! There were two wine vendors there - Dejeon and Basignani. Your ticket gives you tastings to both. I only got to try Basignani and I loved the sangria so I ended up buying two bottles of that to share with my group. The reisling wasn't bad either, but it wasn't enough for me to get an entire bottle. Most bottles are $17 and there were some $30 bottles. There were some food trucks but the lines were super long. My group and I brought our own food - saves time and money. Tents are allowed but again if you want to be closer to the stage, go early! There were some art, cigars, hookah vendors. There's some indoor restrooms near the gate but mostly porta-potties! While I saw some kids here, I personally don't think this is a kid friendly event (at least not younger kids - under 12). There's nothing really for kids to do here! Overall, it was a good time! I would attend again in the future.

    Maryland SummerFest - Me-pear cider Husband-IPA I love this cider and beer tasting but not a fan of the wines.  The pear cider is smooth and sweet easy to drink.

    My husband and I had a great time visiting Baugher's today! It was their first day of the season…read moreand because it was a Friday afternoon, it wasn't too busy. We ended up picking a basket of our own strawberries. The lady who rang us up in the market and explained the process was friendly and helpful. The gentleman who drove the tractor to and from the field did a great job explaining the picking process and which strawberries to pick or not to pick. We never had to wait more than a few minutes to take the tractor to and from. Afterwards we visited the petting zoo and fed the animals two bags of food which we purchased from the market. They were sooo cute! The one goat was so funny and his name should be "Shadow" since he followed us around the whole time! He can be seen in our pic feeding the duck. He was so funny! The animals were all friendly and super cute to hang out with for a bit. Feeding the goats up on the structure via conveyorbelt was so fun and entertaining! I highly recommend visiting and plan to be back in a couple months to pick peaches and nectarines!

    Loved our visit! We picked apples and visited the market store, which had an amazing selection of…read moreproduce, pumpkins, and sweets! We all loved the apple cider and apple cider donuts. All of the baked goods we got were phenomenal (pumpkin muffins and gingerbread cookies!) A super interactive and fun spot for a fall day--tractor rides, apple/sunflower and pumpkin picking, petting zoo, and on site food vendors made for a super fun fall afternoon!

    We were a party of nine on a beautiful September day. All of us have never ridden an electric bike…read morebefore and some of us were very nervous. The staff at Pedego were extremely helpful in getting us ready. They adjusted seats and for me that was at least three times before we finally settled on the lowest position possible. The staff provided us instruction and encouragement. You just can't rate someone on that. I'm sorry I don't remember his name, but he kept telling me that I'll be fine and you never forget how to ride a bike. He said it multiple times. You know what? He was right. We had a fantastic time and I didn't want to get off the bike when we got back. We decided to do our own tour with a provided map from Pedego. We did have to go out into the street a small amount of time. Our first stop was the historic Mt. Olivet Cemetery where you will find famous inhabitants like Francis Scott Key. The cemetery was the perfect place for us to acclimate ourselves. I kept thinking if I fall, at least I will fall on grass (or a headstone but I think I'll hit grass first). But luckily, none of us fell. The cemetery was flat with a wide road and only a couple of cars. When we felt comfortable, we made our way to Baker Park and found a covered bridge. We rode along Carroll Creek park and then headed back to Pedego after two hours. The bikes are heavy but with the pedal assist, you will not tire out as much. LOL. I loved being able to actually look at beautiful Frederick without having to do too much work. I think anyone who knows how to ride a bike will do fine on an electric bike. You might like it more than traditional pedaling! Bring your own helmets if you have one. There is a small bag attached to the bike if you have a water bottle or other small items that you want to bring along.

    Great people helped me with my Chinese bike even though they didn't have to. Very knowledgeable…read moreVery helpful.
