Mission Statement
Our mission is to promote agriculture in Berks County by preserving farmland, invigorating agricultural economic development, and being an agricultural resource hub for our community.
Agricultural Land Preservation Board
The Berks County Department of Agriculture works with the Berks County Agricultural Land Preservation Board to permanently preserve large clusters of viable agricultural lands by acquiring agricultural conservation easements (ACE). An ACE prevents the development of the land for any purpose besides productive agriculture.
