The number of farms and the acreage participating in the Davidson County Voluntary Agricultural District continues to grow as landowners recognize the advantages of being involved in the program. Participating farms receive signage to increase the visibility of the farm, rights to public hearings when participating land is proposed for condemnation, and water and sewer assessments are held in abeyance until connections are made to the system. The public benefits by having open space preserved, economic diversity, and increased availability of locally grown products.

The VAD Advisory Board investigates the advantages of expanding to an Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural District. The public is invited to attend the VAD Advisory Board Meetings.
