COUNTYWIDE FARMLAND PROTECTION PLAN <br />FOR <br />CABARRUS COUNTY, <br />NORTH CAROLINA' <br />Presented in draft to the <br />Board of County Commissioners, <br />Cabarrus County <br />December, 2006 <br />ARTICLE I: <br />STATEMENT OF NEED FOR ACTION <br />Agriculture makes a major contribution to the well being of Cabarrus County residents, <br />both those living within, and outside the county's cities and towns. In addition to direct <br />contributions to the local economy in the form of product sale receipts and expenditures <br />on farm services and inputs, along with employment on farms and farm support <br />businesses, farmers also make significant contributions as stewards of the remaining <br />amounts of undeveloped land (often called "open- space ") in the county. Their <br />stewardship protects the county's soil and water resources, recharges groundwater and <br />abates storm water runoff, connects wildlife habitat, and safeguards the scenic and <br />historic vistas that have defined our county's character. Cabarrus County has a number <br />of Heritage Farms. Sixteen farms were listed as Century Farm Families by the North <br />Carolina Department of Agriculture in 2007. The following farms have over 100 years of <br />Farming Heritage: <br />George Barnhardt, Maggie Barnhardt <br />Marvin L. Bost Jr. <br />Eugene W. Cochrane Sr. <br />Christenbury Farms <br />Richard Earl Earnhardt <br />J. Virgil Hahn <br />Timothy L. Honeycutt <br />Amanda K. Miller <br />Mrs. J. F. Moose, Linda Moose Boger <br />Willard Moose <br />Mrs. J. Lewis Patterson <br />Attachment number 1 <br />G -1 Page 198 <br />
