The York County Agricultural Ad-Hoc Advisory Board is a voluntary pilot program created by York County Council to promote and support local agriculture. Its purpose is to raise awareness of agriculture and advise the County on agricultural matters, so that the county’s diverse farming interests are supported, the agricultural community works together, and agriculture’s role in the local economy and character is maintained and developed. Council created the Board in recognition of the county’s agricultural heritage and the need to keep agriculture an important consideration as York County grows and changes.
