ANNAPOLIS, MD – The Maryland Department of Agriculture (MDA) has launched a new video series that spotlights Maryland farmers who are making a difference for our state's natural resources and the Chesapeake Bay.

'Maryland Farmers: Partners in Conservation' showcases local farmers and the conservation projects they have installed to manage manure, safeguard local streams, build healthy soils, and protect the natural resources that we all depend on. You can watch the series on the MDA website or visit the department's YouTube channel.

"Our new video series invites viewers to the farm to learn firsthand about conservation projects—both large and small—that Maryland farmers have installed to restore natural resources and make daily farm chores easier," said Secretary Joe Bartenfelder. "Whether you're a farmer with a conservation project in mind or someone who is curious about how farmers grow our food, there's something for everyone in this series of short videos."
