The Delaware Department of Agriculture honored four Delaware's farm families for their continued commitment to farming the same land for a century or more. The Delaware Century Farm Program was established in 1987 to honor farming families who have owned and farmed their land for at least 100 years. The farms must include at least 10 acres of the original parcel or gross more than $10,000 annually in agricultural sales. Including this year's inductees, the program has honored 143 farms throughout Delaware.
