Mount Harmon, Colonial tobacco plantation in Earleville, Maryland, US.

Mount Harmon spans 430 acres along the Sassafras River, featuring an 18th-century manor house, colonial kitchen, smokehouse, and formal boxwood gardens.

The plantation originated in 1651 through a land grant from Lord Baltimore to Godfrey Harmon and later prospered as a tobacco plantation from 1750 to 1810.

The Friends of Mount Harmon organization maintains the property through guided tours, educational programs, and seasonal events including Colonial and Yuletide festivals.

The plantation welcomes visitors from May to October, Thursday through Sunday, with guided tours starting every hour and day passes available for garden access.

The property contains a restored Tobacco Prize House, which stands as a testament to Maryland's colonial agricultural practices and trade systems.
