Pierce County’s Agriculture Program helps local agricultural producers and processors navigate permitting procedures and interpret County regulations, works to improve relationships between agricultural operations and County government, and establishes partnerships with other agricultural service providers in the County and region. The current focus of the Agriculture Program includes permitting assistance for landowners, updating County policies affecting agriculture, providing support to rural landowners in solving drainage issues, and facilitating greater market access for local farms. We also provide information and resources for Pierce County residents and visitors to connect with our local farms.
