This little cutie is picking pumpkins at Butlers Orchard.

It’s time to bring the pumpkins out, hang up decorations, and rake leaves. That’s right, it’s fall. If you’ re bored and can’t figure out what to do, we are here to help.

Fall is the perfect time to go out and bond with those you love. We have some perfect date ideas or even things to do with a group of friends. Here are our top 15 things to do in the fall:

  • Go hiking
  • Make caramel apples
  • Go to a pumpkin patch and carve pumpkins (try Butler’s Orchard or Jumbo’s Pumpkin Patch)
  • Go to the Field of Screams (located at 4501 Olney Laytonsville Rd, Olney, MD 20832)

  • Perform an exorcism just for fun

Fall can be such an exciting and eventful time of the year. Perfect weather, fall-themed activities, and friends will complete your fall bucket list!
