The record

Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.

A Maryland family purchased a 62-acre working farm in 1954 and chose to cease intensive agricultural production to let the land heal.
The property has since transitioned into a diverse natural habitat and has now been secured under a permanent conservation easement.
This 62-acre site serves as a vital component of a larger 1,200-acre connected conservation block.
The agreement also marks the 350th protected property completed by the involved conservation group.
The long-term protection ensures the ecological benefits of the restored land will be preserved for future generations.
