Our take

The Farm and the Setting

Adkins Farms is a working Eastern Shore farm that operates a seasonal fall attraction (early September through late October). The Eastern Shore is flat, agricultural, and quieter than the Piedmont or mountain regions. The feel is rural and understated compared to metro-area festival patches.

The farm offers corn maze, play area, and U-pick pumpkins as the core attractions, plus hay rides. The record also mentions snacks on-site.

Educational Focus

A distinguishing feature is the farm’s educational programming for schools and 4-H groups, plus birthday party packages. This suggests the farm is family-oriented and experienced with groups. However, it also means weekday traffic may include school buses or group reservations, potentially affecting public walk-in access.

Call 410-546-2553 to ask whether specific school-day hours restrict public access.

The Data Void

The record has no website, no direct phone linkage in the database, no 2026 start/end dates, no operating hours, and no admission pricing. To visit, you must call 410-546-2553 (confirmed in the record as the farm’s phone) and ask:

  • When does the 2026 season start?
  • What are your operating hours and days?
  • What is admission pricing?
  • Are there school-group days that might affect public hours?
  • What is included in admission (hay rides, snacks)?

Geography and Travel

Parsonsburg is in Wicomico County on the Eastern Shore, a 45-60 minute drive from Baltimore, 1+ hours from Washington DC depending on traffic and bridge tolls. The Bay Bridge weekend traffic in fall can be real, especially leaf-peeper season (early October). If you’re from the metro area, plan travel time accordingly.

Eastern Shore farms often cater to a regional/local crowd rather than metro day-trippers, so the experience may be quieter and more rural than you’d expect.

What to Expect

Given the school-program and birthday-party focus, the farm is probably well-maintained and family-friendly. However, the lack of published web presence suggests a smaller, less commercial operation than the 20-acre festival patches near DC. This could mean:

  • Smaller corn maze (30-45 minutes vs. 60-90 minutes)
  • Simple play area (not premium attractions)
  • Snacks rather than a full food operation
  • Modest pumpkin patch (not 9 acres)

Call ahead to confirm the scale and scope.

Best For

Regional Eastern Shore families, school groups, and those seeking a small-scale, quiet farm experience without the commercialization of major metro patches. If you’re driving from DC or Baltimore for a weekend outing, confirm hours and pricing first—the drive may not be worthwhile if limited hours or a very small patch is the case.
