| Is there a place that has all three and would be enjoyed by toddlers? Preferably not more than an hour from Silver Spring. |

| I haven't had luck finding the donuts, sadly. But we like Homestead. Not a ton of extra features, but nice simple farm fun. |

| Donuts at cox farms are amazing. We went there with our toddler. Tons of animals to pet. No real patch though - but a big market and you get to wander around it and pick out a free pumpkin. |

| Not sure about the donuts, but Clark's Elioak Farm is great for little kids. |

| Summers Farm In Fredrick just there today. Not certain you can actually pet the animals but I think so. |

Milburn Orchard in Elkton,Md is 90 minutes from Silver Spring. We were there last weekend. Those cider donuts were worth the crowds, crazy parking and the drive.

| Gaver farm in mt. Airy has all three. A little far a from Silver Spring, but fall fest is only $5 a person. Pumpkin patch and hayrides are free. Apple cider donuts and apple cider were pretty good. We had a great time-3 year old and 15 month old. |

| I took my 22 month old to Gaver Farm this weekend. It's free for kids under 2, 9 bucks on the weekend for adults. Well worth it! She had a blast--we stayed for 4 hours, there was that much to do. |

+1. We were also there today and it has all 3. It is a GREAT place to go. So much to do but not overly crowded. |

| Butlers. The donuts were awesome and didn't have any line (unlike the other food options.) We didn't bother with the petting zoo this year since my kids already went on a school field trip, but it's always been there. I live near SS and it took us less than 1/2 hour on 270. Only thing is you have to get there early - when we were leaving at noon, there was about a 5 mile backup of cars waiting to go there. |

Braehead Farm in Fredericksburg. Goats, cows, bunnies horses and pigs along with chickens.
Pick your own pumpkin. Hay rides. No donuts but they do have apple cider and kettle corn. |
