Maryland


For over 40 years, Hepburn Orchards has been owned and operated by the Hepburn family of Hancock, Maryland. Their old-time fruit market located just off I-70 (near the eastern terminus of I-68 from Morgantown, WV, and Cumberland, MD) is a favorite stop for tourists and travelers at this important and historic junction point. The Western Maryland Rail Trail, which runs directly behind Hepburn's market complex, is also a popular attraction to the area offering about 25 miles of paved right-of-way for cyclists along the former Western Maryland Railway main line. Hepburn's friendly market not only offers the finest of fresh local produce, seasonal bedding plants, and home-made pies; but also a variety of quality Maryland and regional souvenirs - including, of course, the RR Trax Studios book on the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad, along with a limited number of author-signed copies of Bessemer and Lake Erie Railroad - A Tribute.
