Pick Your Own Produce

Check out Boyer Orchards in Biglerville to pick the biggest, juiciest apples you can find – eat them on the spot or take them home to bake a beautiful homemade pie!

Step Back in Time…

Explore the streets of historic Gettysburg and travel back in time with the amazing period actors and actresses walking the town. Hear them recount the days of old and how the historic Battle of Gettysburg shaped their everyday lives during those sweltering July days.

Walk through the streets that were once crowded with horses, carts, carriages, and even soldiers – step into one of the taverns and enjoy the meals that the people of historic Gettysburg would have enjoyed. Take care, though – stay too long, and you may get more than you bargained for.
