MCA ’s Land Link program has
allowed us to connect with and learn
from local farmers as well as keep our
land in agriculture. We have had the
opportunity to house two vegetable farm-
ers and market their produce. We have
learned about planting and preserving the
land and have the luxury of eating fresh
produce throughout the season.

There is reason for optimism. The positive
signs are there for Land Link and the growth of
farming in the Reserve. For several years after
the program was launched, we had a paucity of
land owners in the system. And now land owners,
seeing the value of having their land in farming,
are signing up in greater numbers. The latest
Agricultural Census shows an increase in farms in
Montgomery County. That works for all of us!
