WADESBORO During a recent farm field trip to Thy Will Be Done LLC., participants of the Anson Youth Leaders Academy (AYLA) joined NC Cooperative Extension on a small farms visit.
Owners, Rodrequis Lisenby and Whitney Downer, led the group on a walking tour of their Wadesboro farm in which participants learned about broiler chicken breeds, the egg laying operation, garden, and managing a backyard farrow-to-finish hog lot. Participants learned about resources for small-scale agricultural production and how their farm start-up experience tied in with building personal leadership skills, philanthropic responsibility, and entrepreneurship.
WADESBORO Anson County and Centralina Regional Council need assistance from residents to finish developing a Comprehensive Land Use Plan to stretch through the year 2040.
The twenty-year plan represents goals, recommendations and guidance to better develop the county in terms of growth, land use or transportation planning. A committee of local representatives have been working with Centralina to create this plan that will suite Anson county.
“From a participation stand point or public engagement standpoint, we’re looking for an adoption of the plan,” Centralina Assistant Planning Director Jessica Hill said. “It would go to the (County Commissioners) probably in February so we want to do a final round of public engagement.”
