Wake County is taking strong steps to protect farms and forest land from an increasingly hot development market. The new Farmland Preservation Program aims to conserve Wake County’s nearly 700 farms and help combat North Carolina’s disappointing ranking as the second highest state in the nation for farmland loss.
With this new program, the Wake County Soil and Water Conservation District will offer two additional conservation options: Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural District (EVAD) and Agricultural Conservation Easement. The EVAD program builds on the existing Voluntary Agricultural District (VAD) program, a voluntary program for landowners who wish to preserve the current status of their agricultural land.
