Calendar of Maryland Harvests

Several Farm Store customers requested a calendar of harvests detailing “what grows when.” So, here’s a list we created based on data from the state.

It’s important to note that harvest times are approximate, as weather conditions and picking may affect ripening dates and availability. Additionally, it’s worth mentioning that we don’t produce all items catalogued…yet 🙂

Enjoy!
