This season
The orchard lists a long fruit range and asks you to check its produce page or ring first. Its own site describes what it grows rather than what you may pick, and the directory records pick-your-own blueberries and sweet and sour cherries.

About This Farm
Pryor Orchards at Thurmont grows one of the longest fruit lists in this region and has been Good Agricultural Practices approved since 2008.
What You Can Pick
According to the directory: blueberries, and sweet and sour cherries.
The orchard itself lists what it grows: "Peaches, Apples, Pears, Cherries, Apricots, Sweet Plums, Prunes, Nectarines and many more." Whether all of that is pickable is not stated.
Good to Know
The orchard's own instruction: "Please check Produce page, or call first."
Its statement of purpose is worth quoting: "Our sole purpose is to give you a wholesome, fresh, good tasting, high quality, home grown, safe product. Come and see for yourself. We would love to have you."
Pro tip: apricots and prunes on the same list is unusual, and prunes here means proper European plums for drying rather than anything from a packet. Worth asking about.
