PURPOSE: To consider applications from multiple landowners /farms of certified qualifying
farmland within the Cedar Grove, Schley /Eno, Efland /High Rock, and White Cross
Voluntary Agricultural Districts; and enroll the lands in the Orange County Voluntary
Agricultural District (VAD) and the Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural District (EVAD)
programs.
BACKGROUND: Orange County's Voluntary Farmland Preservation Program was started
in 1992. To date, 41 farms have enrolled in the Voluntary Agricultural District (VAD)
program, and 10 farms have enrolled in the Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural District
(EVAD) program, totaling 6,923 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;
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 (17 27 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.
At the August and October 2014 meetings, the Orange County Agricultural Preservation
Board reviewed the findings of the staff assessments for the attached applications for the
Orange County VAD program. 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
five (5) farms and 222.61 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 Cedar Grove Windy Hill Farm - Geoffrey and Jane Gledhill farm have
submitted an application to enroll one (1) parcel of land totaling 38.88 acres as
qualifying farmland for the Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural District program (EVAD)
in the Cedar Grove Agricultural District. The farm operation is comprised of pasture
land, beef cattle, dairy goats, and honeybees. The Gledhills also grow shiitake
mushrooms, blueberries, and other fruit trees such as figs, sweet cherries,
mulberries, elderberries, and Asian pears. The Gledhill Farm has been evaluated
against the EVAD certification requirement standards and meets or exceeds all of
the measures above.
2) Owners of the McAdams Farm - Howard and Karen McAdams - have submitted an
application to enroll two (2) parcels of land totaling 13.42 acres as qualifying

To be formally designated as part of a Voluntary Agricultural District program, the Board of
Commissioners must approve that the farms meet the certification requirements as per the
Agriculture Preservation Board'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 five (5)
farm properties noted above totaling 146.66 acres (VAD) and 75.95 acres (EVAD) as
denoted in the attached documentation as qualifying farmland, and designate them as
Voluntary or Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural District farms within the Cedar Grove,
Efland /High Rock, Schley /Eno, and White Cross Voluntary Agricultural Districts; and enroll
the lands in the Orange County Voluntary Agricultural District (VAD) and the Enhanced
Voluntary Agricultural District (EVAD) programs.
