Montgomery County officials joined students, staff, and community members at A. Mario Loiederman Middle School at 12701 Goodhill Road in Silver Spring last Friday, May 9, 2025, for a ribbon-cutting celebrating the first anniversary of the school's urban farm. Among those in attendance were Montgomery County Councilmember Natali Fani-Gonzalez, Montgomery County Public Schools Superintendent Dr. Thomas W. Taylor, and members of the Board of Education. The farm on the school property was created in partnership with the Charles Koiner Conservancy for Urban Farming, a nonprofit land trust "dedicated to creating and supporting neighborhood farms that provide educational opportunities, improve food security, build community connections, and promote land conservation," MCPS said in a statement.
