More Lehigh Valley farms have been added to Pennsylvania's Farmland Preservation Program — it's a $10 million statewide effort to preserve open spaces.
Land preservation has been a hot topic with warehouses recently reshaping the local landscape, with state Agriculture Secretary Russell Redding saying in a news release that saving farmland from "warehouses and sprawl is an investment we can’t afford not to make."
Environment and science reporter Molly Bilinski has been keeping up with the topic and tells us more about the preservation project.
