The Arkansas Department of Agriculture recently inducted a new class of Arkansas farms into the Century Farm program, which recognizes Arkansas’s rich agricultural heritage and honors families who have owned and farmed the same land for at least 100 years. The induction ceremony was held at the Arkansas State Capitol and featured Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson and Secretary of Agriculture Wes Ward.
The Arkansas Century Farm Program is a voluntary program as each family chooses whether to submit an application and participate in the program. The program places no restrictions on the farm and offers no legal protection. There is no cost to the family to submit an application and participate in the program. Successful applicants receive a personalized certificate and metal sign identifying their historical farm.
