Heyser Farms

Very cute store with glass bottle milk, eggs, produce and some fresh bakery items. The price is right and compared to the one I go that is closer to my house. It’s easy to get to with plenty of parking and had a winery/​cider tasting room in it which is a bonus!

The ice cream is amazing. The cider is good too. The eggs come from chickens in the back. The produce is pretty good and being a farm store is seasonal. We get the grassfed milk for the kids and I like the pickled stuff in the back. Some of the stuff is shipped in, which is expected for a suburban farm. It’s not the biggest store, but what do you expect? I just like how it’s a family farm, except right down the street and most of the stuff is local. The staff is great and the place just feels like part of the community.

It’s so great to have a farm close to the house, and even better since they have so many treats and staples like eggs, fruits and vegetables, and delicious cider.

Farm fresh eggs available not even 10 miles from my home… sold! I tried this place in the winter time so I can’t speak to the grounds outdoors but the indoor market had just what I was looking for – eggs straight from the hen. They had an array of fresh produce: tomatoes, asparagus, peppers, onions, squash, strawberries, pears, apples, etc. They even had avocados for $ 1! I have to say that avocado was the best I’ve had in a long time. The flavor was so rich – you know not like the testosterone veggies available in grocery stores that only resemble vegetables? I’ll definitely return to try their tasting room and homemade ice cream. Cute place and pretty convenient from Silver Spring.

Best cider ever. It seriously tastes exactly like eating an apple. No to mention fresh fruit and veggies, bread, milk from grassfed cows, delicious ice cream. And did I mention the fresh doughnuts? Swoon. Don’t miss this treasure!

Great place. The cider, the donuts, apples and baked goods are delicious. They have some fruits and vegetables and some other pantry items plus, they have their own wine now. They also have free range eggs, meat and organic milk and ice cream. I love this place and come here often

I love stopping at Heyser’s, it feels like visiting a pick-​your-​own farm that could be waaaaay out in the country but it’s actually close by. They have good local produce, tons of apples, homemade pies and donuts, plants from their greenhouse, all sorts of jellies and jams, free range eggs and meat from Weichert’s in PA, milk in glass bottles and other dairy products from PA, and unpasteurized apple cider.
They also have a «tasting room» with all the lovely products from Great Shoals Winery which makes several varieties of hard cider and also some varieties of sparkling hard cider. Spencerville Red is made from a local (like down the road, local) apple. The pomegranate apple sparkling cider is delicious as is the one made from tart cherries. My fantasy is to taste them all one day. There are places that claim to carry Great Shoals’ products, but no other place that I know of where you can get them all!

Delicious fruits, but they spray everything with pesticides. I wish they had at least SOME pesticide-​free/​organic produce.

This is a great find! Local honey made at Heyser’s, local produce (when in season), fresh pie, unpasteurized fresh apple cider (soooo good), and the most amazing freshly made cinnamon and sugar donuts! The donuts need their own time here… they are made fresh based on your order (Th, F, and Sat). They were crisp on the outside, soft and flaky on the inside, and not shy on the cinnamon and sugar. I also hear the ice cream they carry is good, but have not tried it yet.

Nice place. Went there specifically for fresh unpasteurized cider. SCORE! They also have a variety of produce, and dairy products.

I agree with the previous review regarding cider– I’m originally from the Northeast and had a hard time finding quality apple cider down this way until I discovered Heyser. Delicious!
I also like that they carry local milk/​eggs, and have found in general that their produce is pretty good (esp. the corn). The one thing I’ve found to be uneven is the fruit– in general it’s pretty good, but I bought a basket of smokehouse apples last week as it was one of the few varities in stock, and they are the mealiest apples I’ve ever tasted. Yuck! Had to throw half the bag out, I just couldn’t finish them.

Best cider in the state! Possibly the region! Mom is pretty traditional with holiday fare and it always includes cider from here. If you are buying your cider from the grocery store, you aren’t getting the authentic stuff.
Best quality and local. Win win situation.
