It's beginning to feel a lot like Fall!

Join us at the market this Wednesday, September 20  3-7PM to say Goodbye Summer, Hello Fall as this week brings the changing of the seasonal guard!  We're in the Mount Airy Municipal Parking Lot, Park Avenue & Cross Street, Mount Airy, MD 21771.

This Wednesday also marks the second to last market day of the season. We know, right!?! So, we're gonna make it special in a seasonal kind of way. Pong's Orchard will be selling jugs of Apple Cider brought to you locally by Carroll County's own Baugher's Orchard. There will be a limited supply this week and next, so you'll want to stop by Pong's to get yours while you can!
