For the past 30 years, horticulture graduates Guy and Lynn Moore have been committed alumni operating Larriland Farm, a direct-market, pick-your-own farm in Woodbine, MD.
Guy served as president of the Maryland Vegetable Growers Association for over 20 years. Lynn has earned a spot on the Maryland State Horticultural Society’s executive committee and currently serves as its secretary.

Lynn has been a supporter of regional educational programs serving on longstanding advisory committees to funnel growers’ needs to U.S. Department of Agriculture researchers at Beltsville, MD and Kearneysville, WV. These have resulted in collaborative efforts between USDA, University of Maryland and Penn State University.
