Maryland Farm & Harvest takes viewers on journeys across the state, telling stories about the farms, people, and technology required to sustain and grow Maryland's number one commercial industry – agriculture. MPT's production team filmed episode segments at more than four dozen farms in preparation for its seventh season.
The episode opens with introductions at Star Bright Farm in Baltimore County's White Hall community. Other segments featured on this week's episode include:
- Farming in Winter (Kent County): Despite being in the middle of winter, there's no shortage of work to be done at Hill Haven Farm in Kennedyville. There are animals to feed, farm equipment to repair, and seed corn to sell in preparation for spring planting. Viewers find that even in the so-called "off-season," a farmer's work is never really done.
- Poultry Flock Management (Caroline County): With more than 300 million "broilers" – meat chickens – produced annually, poultry is big business in Maryland. As a contract grower, Jamie Robinette's Way Moore Farms in Federalsburg grows chickens on behalf of international producer Mountaire Farms, which provides him with the resources necessary to grow his birds. Viewers meet the Robinette family and gain greater understanding of the state's poultry supply chain.
- High Oleic Soybeans (Harford, Wicomico, and Queen Anne's counties): In Maryland, soybeans are second only to corn in total acreage farmed. From tofu to toothpaste and even car interiors, the small beans are used to make all kinds of goods. Through visits to Schmidt Family Farms in Sudlersville; Holloway Brothers Farms in Darlington; Schillinger Genetics in Queenstown, and Purdue Farms in Salisbury, viewers learn about the Maryland Soybean Board's Soybean Checkoff program and its role in helping to develop high-oleic soybeans, a recent innovation designed to produce new food and industrial uses for soybean oil.
- The Local Buy: Crabcake.com (Dorchester and Queen Anne's counties): Segment host Al Spoler visits Angelina's Crab Cakes in Stevensville, which ships the Maryland delicacy across the country through its website, com. Then, Spoler visits the J.M. Clayton Company in Cambridge to see where the crab meat used in Angelina's signature crab cakes comes from.
Maryland Farm & Harvest airs on Tuesdays at 7 p.m. on MPT-HD and is rebroadcast on Thursdays at 11:30 p.m. and Sundays at 6 a.m. Each show also airs on MPT2 on Fridays at 7:30 p.m. Previous episodes of the series can be viewed for free on the MPT app and online at MPT's website.
