On August 19, Baltimore County Executive Jim Smith, joined by Congressman Frank Kratovil, County Council Chair Joseph Bartenfelder, County Councilman Bryan McIntire and over 70 individuals from the agricultural industry, celebrated Baltimore County's significant agricultural industry. "Thanks to our ongoing commitment to agriculture, two-thirds of Baltimore County's land remains rural today. More than 53,000 acres of rural land has been permanently preserved in the County. In fact, Baltimore County is among the top ten jurisdictions nationally in farmland preservation," said County Executive Smith. View photographs from the event. |
