PURPOSE: To consider applications from multiple landowners /farms to certify qualifying
farmland within the Cedar Grove, Cane Creek - Buckhorn, High Rock /Efland, and Caldwell
Voluntary Agricultural Districts, and enroll the lands in the Orange County Voluntary Agricultural
District (VAD) and the Enhanced Voluntary Agriculture District (EVAD) programs.
BACKGROUND: As the Board may recall, Orange County has had a Voluntary Farmland
Preservation Program since 1992. To date, 22 farms have enrolled in the Voluntary Agricultural
District (VAD) program, totaling 4,353 acres within the seven districts comprising the non -urban
portions of the County.
The County's Voluntary Farmland Protection Ordinance (VFPO) outlines a procedure for the
Agricultural Preservation Board to review and approve applications for qualifying farmland, and
to make recommendations to the Board of Commissioners concerning the establishment and
modification of agricultural districts. Section VII of the VFPO contains the requirements for
inclusion in a voluntary agricultural district. To be certified as qualifying farmland, a farm must:
1. Consist of the minimum number of contiguous acres to participate in the present -use-
value taxation program (20 acres for forestry, 10 for agriculture and 5 for horticulture);
2. Be participating in the farm present- use -value taxation program established by
N.C.G.S. §105 -277.2 through §105- 277.7, or is otherwise determined by the county to
meet all the qualifications of this program set forth in G.S. 105 - 277.3;
2
3. Be certified by the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) of the United
States Department of Agriculture as being a farm on which at least two - thirds of the
land is composed of soils that:
a. Are best suited for providing food, seed, fiber, forage, timber, forestry
products, horticultural crops and oil seed crops;
b. Have good soil qualities;
C. Are favorable for all major crops common to the county where the land is
located;
d. Have a favorable growing season; and
e. Receive the available moisture needed to produce high yields for an average
of eight out of ten years;
OR at least two - thirds of the land has been actively used in agricultural, horticultural
or forestry operations as defined by N.C.G.S. §105 -277.2 (1, 2, 3) during each of the
five previous years, measured from the date on which the determination must be
made as to whether the land in question qualifies;
4. Be managed, if highly erodible land exists on the farm, in accordance with the Natural
Resources Conservation Service defined erosion - control practices that are addressed
to said highly - erodible land; and
5. Be the subject of a non - binding conservation agreement, as defined in N.C.G.S. §121-
35, between the County and the owner that prohibits non -farm use or development of
such land for a period of at least ten years, except for the creation of not more than
three lots that meet applicable County zoning and subdivision regulations.
On March 20, 2013 the Orange County Agricultural Preservation Board reviewed the findings of
the staff assessments. All farm applications were reviewed and verified to have met or
exceeded the minimum criteria for certification into the program. The Agricultural Preservation
Board voted unanimously to recommend approval of the certification for the four farms and
642.8 acres of farmland and their inclusion in the Voluntary and Enhanced Voluntary
Agricultural District program. The certification documentation is on file in the DEAPR /Soil and
Water Conservation District office. The farms are described briefly below:
Brief Farm Descriptions:
1) Owners of the Allan and Christine Green farm have submitted an application to enroll one
(1) parcel of their farm totaling 12.28 acres located on Dairyland Road and Orange Grove Road
as qualifying farmland for the Voluntary Agricultural District (VAD) program (Cane Creek -
Buckhorn District). The farm is very diverse with a primary focus on beef cattle and organically
grown market produce. The Allan and Christine Green Farm has been evaluated against each
of the VAD certification requirement standards and meets or exceeds all of the measures
above.
2) Owners of the Randall and Susan Ward farm have submitted an application to enroll one (1)
parcel of their farm totaling 156.8 acres located in the Caldwell Community on New Sharon
Church Road, as qualifying farmland for the Voluntary Agricultural District (VAD) program
(Caldwell District). The farm is comprised of hay land and managed forestry/woodland acres.
The Randall and Susan Ward Farm has been evaluated against each of the VAD certification
requirement standards and meets or exceeds all of the measures above.
3
3) The owner of the Robert H. Pope, Jr. farm has submitted an application to enroll one (1)
parcel of the farm totaling 75.39 acres located in the Cedar Grove Community on Efland —
Cedar Grove Road, as qualifying farmland for the Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural District
(EVAD) program (Cedar Grove District). The farm is comprised of pasture and
forestry/woodland and raising Iambs for sell to restaurants and farmers markets. The Robert H.
Pope, Jr. Farm has been evaluated against each of the EVAD certification requirement
standards and meets or exceeds all of the measures above.
4) Owners of the Elizabeth and Roland Walters (mother and son) farm have submitted an
application to revise three (3) parcels of their farm totaling 398.41 acres located in the High
Rock Community on High Rock Road as qualifying farmland for the Voluntary and Enhanced
Voluntary Agricultural District (VAD /EVAD) program (High Rock /Efland District). The Walters
Farm was the first farm enrolled in the VAD program in 1992, and has requested to revise their
acreage in the program. Two (2) tracts of 225.28 acres will be enrolled in the Enhanced
Voluntary Agriculture Program (EVAD). One (1) tract of 173.13 acres will remain enrolled in the
Voluntary Agriculture Program (VAD). The farm is very diverse; including beef cattle, hogs,
chickens, and produce /vegetable crops for farm and smaller market sales. The farm also
includes pastures and managed forestry/woodland acres. The Elizabeth and Roland Walters
Farm has been evaluated against each of the VAD certification requirement standards and
meets or exceeds all of the measures above.
To be formally designated as part of a voluntary agricultural district, the Board of
Commissioners must approve that the farms meet the certification requirements as per the
APB's findings.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with this item. Voluntary Agricultural
Districts are non - monetary and non - binding conservation agreements. Enhanced Voluntary
Agriculture Districts are non - monetary and are binding 10 -year conservation agreements.
RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board certify the four (4) farm
properties noted above totaling 342.21 acres (VAD) and 300.67 acres (EVAD) as denoted in the
attached documentation as qualifying farmland, and designate them as Enhanced Voluntary or
Voluntary Agricultural District farms within the Cane Creek - Buckhorn, Caldwell, Cedar Grove,
and High Rock /Efland Agricultural Districts.
