All Board positions are appointed by the Governor.  Members serve 5-year terms, and may serve up two full consecutive terms. The Board meets the 4th Thursday of every month except in November and December, when the meetings are held early to avoid conflicts with the holidays. Please call prior to attending a meeting to confirm the date/location. 

Meetings are currently held by Google Meets due to the COVID-19 pandemic; however, the Board intends to meet in-person once a quarter. In-person meetings are held at the Maryland Department of Agriculture in Annapolis.
