~ In the latest episode of Maryland Public Television's original series, Maryland Farm & Harvest, host Joanne Clendining takes viewers on a tour of the Maryland Zoo's on-site farm and visits an alpaca farm on its busiest day of the year. The episode, which will premiere on Tuesday, February 20, will showcase farms and locations in Baltimore City and Dorchester, St. Mary's, and Queen Anne's counties.
Maryland Farm & Harvest has been a popular weekly series for 11 seasons now, highlighting the farms, people, and technology that sustain and grow agriculture in Maryland - the state's number one commercial industry. The show airs on Tuesdays at 7 p.m. on MPT-HD and can also be streamed online at mpt.org/livestream. Encore broadcasts are available on Thursdays at 11 p.m. and Sundays at 6 a.m., as well as on MPT2/Create® on Fridays at 7:30 p.m.
The episode begins with Clendining visiting Church Hill Farm in Hydes (Baltimore County) before moving onto the featured segments.
First up is the Maryland Zoo in Baltimore where Clendining takes a tour of their sustainability garden - a small-scale farm built by staff and volunteers to provide healthy diets for the zoo's over 130 different species of animals. She also visits the commissary - a restaurant-grade kitchen where meals are prepared for animals of all sizes and diets. Clendining even lends a hand with food prep and delivery for some of the zoo's more than 1,000 animals.

Next is a "Farmer Flashback" segment featuring Briar Branch Alpaca Farm in St. Mary's County. Alpacas are gaining popularity for their unique coat of fiber, making shearing day one of the busiest days of the year at Briar Branch Alpaca Farm & Boutique in Clements. Clendining helps out with the shearing process and takes a tour of the alpaca's pastures while learning about the history of alpaca farming in the U.S. She also tries on some of the many alpaca fiber creations for sale in the boutique.
The episode also features a "Farm to Skillet" segment with Chef Kurt Peter from St. Michaels Farmers Market in Dorchester and Queen Anne's counties. Peter, owner of Chesapeake Chef Service, takes viewers through the market to gather locally produced ingredients for his pan-seared rockfish with sautéed vegetables dish. He then demonstrates how to prepare and present the delicious meal, with the recipe available for viewers to try at home on mpt.org/farm.
Maryland Farm & Harvest has been a hit with over 16 million viewers since its debut in 2013. The series has visited over 450 farms, fisheries, and other agriculture-related locations in every Maryland county, as well as Baltimore City and Washington D.C.
