ANNAPOLIS, MD (September 26, 2025) ~ The Maryland Department of Agriculture is currently accepting nominations for the Governor's Agriculture Hall of Fame, which recognizes and celebrates the contributions of exceptional farm families to the state's leading industry. Interested applicants have until October 3 to submit their nominations.
Established in 1991, the Governor's Agriculture Hall of Fame pays tribute to farmers and farm families who have dedicated their lives to Maryland's agricultural heritage. The induction of Roland and Mildred Darcey, Y.D. and Lonnie Hance, and C. Rodman and Jean Myers marked the beginning of this legacy. Since then, 57 farm families from all 23 counties in the state have been honored.
To be eligible for the award, a family must derive its income primarily from farming. Interested parties must work with their county University of Maryland Extension office to prepare their application, which should include detailed information about the family. The application must also highlight the family's agricultural leadership, community activities, and technological advancements such as soil and water conservation, marketing initiatives, machinery innovations, and safety strategies.
