The District’s Equipment Rental Program began in 1997 with the purchase of a 10-foot no-till drill, funded with a grant from the Chesapeake Bay Trust.
Over 25 years of the program, the District has purchased more than a dozen pieces of farming equipment. Funding is sourced by District funds, as well as grants awarded from the Southern Maryland Agricultural Development Commission (SMADC). Rental fees are set at a rate that covers repairs and maintenance only.

All rentals are reserved on a first come, first served basis.

Please review the Revised Equipment Handbook (2024) for more detailed information about the exact machinery and rental procedures.
