What happened
Supervisors in Lancaster County are scheduled to consider rezoning the Miller farm from an agricultural holding zone to an agricultural zone. The Lancaster Farmland Trust plans to take ownership of the 60-acre property to establish a community farm offering educational and hands-on agricultural experiences. No decision has been made regarding the trust's purchase of the farm.

Why it matters
Changing the zoning designation would ensure the property remains a farm, as the current agricultural holding zone includes plans for property development. The trust has previously used easements to help other farms in East Hempfield avoid development.
