Gaver Farm

❤️ Show your love for Frederick County Farms! In support of the referendum to let the people of Frederick County decide if they want to expand the data center area, Gaver Farm will be open on Saturday Valentine’s Day from 9 to 12 for registered Frederick county voters to sign the petition. Please stop by at the farm’s Admission Barn.

As you know, our farm is being severely impacted by the Maryland Piedmont, Reliability Project. MPRP is a transmission line slated to serve, out-of-state, private, corporations.

The critical data infrastructure overlay map Ordinance 26–01–001 was passed in January. This legislation added almost 1000 acres to the already 1600 acres being developed for data centers. This was done against the will of the people, the recommendations from the Data Center Work Group, the Planning Commission recommendations, and our state legislators. The community spoke out and asked to slow down and wait for the State Data Center Analysis currently being conducted.

The next step is to get a referendum on the ballot and let the people have a say. So if you love agriculture, and want to have a voice in what happens in Frederick County, please stop by!

Congratulations to our Fall Photo Contest Winners!
