COMING UP, WE VISIT A FARM SINCE THE 1890s.

BUT FIRST LET'S TALK ABOUT LONG BEFORE INVERNESS BREWING THIS PROPERTY WAS HOME AND A FAMOUS PERSON.

* THE CLANKING OF CANS AND THE HUM CAN ONLY MEAN ONE THING IN BALTIMORE COUNTY.

Tom Davidson: WE'RE GOING TO BE CANNING WHICH IS OUR HOUSE LAGER.

Greg McGrath: MAKING SURE ENDS ARE FULL, MAKING SURE CANS ARE COMING TOM'S PULLING THEM OFF, DISCARDING ONES THAT PUTTING THEM INTO CASES.

Joanne: WELL TODAY, IT'S CROP TO CAN.

THE BEER ON TAP IS A LAGER AND LIKE ALL OF IT CONTAINS HOPS GROWN THE MONKTON PROPERTY.

OWNER SANDY FRANK SAYS, MOST LIKELY TO BE FOUND TENDING Sandy Frank: PRETTY MUCH ME.

WE ALL PITCH IN, BUT THEY'RE IT'S A LOT OF WORK.

THEY'VE GOT TO BE SPRAYED A LOT WE IRRIGATE THEM.

Joanne: THE ON-FARM BREWERY AND TAPROOM IT STARTED WHEN THEY FOR THEIR SON'S WEDDING.

Sandy: EVERY TIME, WE STARTED IT JUST GOT WORSE AND WORSE, IT WAS A LOT AND IT WAS A TRUE BUT I MEAN, YOU COULD SEE IT.

IT DID TURN OUT REALLY WELL.

Joanne: ALREADY THEY SERVED GUESTS BEER Sandy: AFTER WE GOT DONE, "GOSH, THIS BARN IS YEAH, YOU GUYS HAVE DONE WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?"

HI.

Joanne: THEIR FORAY INTO THE LATEST CHAPTER IN AND VARIED HISTORY.

SET IN THE HEART OF A NATIONAL HISTORIC DISTRICT, TO CHASE ME, A HORSE THAT IT WAS ALSO, AND THE RESIDENCE OF ONE OF Sandy: IT'S CALLED THIS WAS CLARK GABLE'S SUMMER Joanne: JUST BEFORE HIS CAREER IN "GONE WITH THE WIND," IN MONKTON.

AS THE STORY GOES, OF THE GROOMS WORKING AT OFFERING HIM THE CHANCE OF Sandy: HE TRIED TO GET HIM TO BE IN THE MOVIE BECAUSE HE AND HE WOULDN'T GO.

Joanne: THE HISTORY HERE IS SOMETHING SANDY AND RAY WANTED TO THE PUBLIC.

Sandy: SEE, SO, HE JUST TOOK THIS DOWN THAT THEY CHEWED FOR MANY YEARS INTO A BAR.

AND THIS AREA WE JUST DID, THE COOLEST PART OF THIS WAS THE CIA TRAINING WE DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS THERE SAID TO US, THE COCKFIGHT BAR UPSTAIRS?"

AND I WAS, "EXCUSE ME."

SO, HE WENT UP THERE AND STUFF WAS YOU KNOW, THAT OF COURSE, THAT WAS JUST... Joanne: THEY CLEARED OUT A CLANDESTINE SPOT FOR SPIRITS Sandy: YEAH...THIS IS A TIN ROOM THIS WAS A SCORECARD FROM WHEN Joanne: TODAY, IT'S THE Sandy: THIS IS STOUT, HERE AT INVERNESS.

HE'S BEEN IN THE SUN PAPERS THEY CAME OUT AND DID A WHOLE AND HE'S JUST SO COMICAL.

EVERYBODY KNOWS ABOUT HIM.

TWO PEOPLE HAVE TURNED AROUND TO THE BREWERY BECAUSE THEY A LITTLE TOO HEAVY AND THE CAT SO, HE'S JUST... [CHUCKLES] BUT HE'S JUST A SUPER SWEET CAT.

YEAH, YOU ARE GOOD BOY.

[MACHINE NOISE] Joanne: BACK IN THE STABLE BREWERS TOM DAVIDSON AND AND MAKING A MASH FOR ANOTHER SPENT GRAIN LEFTOVER FROM A SPECIAL TREAT FOR THE FARM'S IT SEEMS LIKE THIS, THAT SANDY AND RAY WANT TO Sandy: JUST FOR PEOPLE TO SAY IS SOMETHING THEY'VE NEVER YOU KNOW, I'M A COUNTRY KID.

I TAKE THIS SO FOR GRANTED, Joanne: HELPING TO FURTHER KEEPING THIS FARM A FARM.

Sandy: WE PRESERVED IT, SO IT AND BELIEVE YOU ME, ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT.

* Joanne: INVERNESS JUST STARTED AND SANDY AND RAY ARE LOOKING INTO THEIR BEER.

AND DID YOU KNOW, FOR OVER A THOUSAND YEARS, IN NORTH AMERICA UNTIL * ALL RIGHT, IT'S TIME TO TEST HERE IS OUR THINGAMAJIG DO YOU THINK YOU KNOW SO HERE'S A HINT.

IT HAS A LID AND A HANDLE, BUT STAY TUNED, AND WE'LL HAVE THE THE FIRST TIME WE ASKED FARMERS OF THEIR ANIMALS TO OUR WE GOT SO MANY PICTURES, IN ONE SHOW.

SO HERE'S ANOTHER LOOK AT * MARYLAND FARM PRODUCTS COME IN WHETHER THAT'S IN A CAN * ALL FARMING IS CYCLICAL, THAN OTHERS.

TODAY, IS SUPERVISING THE PARTIAL OF LOBLOLLY PINES, HAVEN'T EVEN REACHED THE HALFWAY Tony Dipaolo: WHAT WE'RE DOING A PINE THINNING ON AN AREA THE SHOCKLEY FAMILY, TREE FARM Joanne: IN OTHER WORDS, ARE COMING DOWN, BUT REMOVING SOME OF THE REST MORE ROOM TO GROW.

[MACHINE NOISE] Tony: THERE'S A CONSTANT BATTLE FOR RESOURCES, SUNLIGHT, WHAT WE'RE DOING WHEN WE DO IS WE'RE MIMICKING NATURE.

SO THAT INSTEAD OF TAKING 100 MAYBE WE CAN GROW THAT STAND Joanne: AT WHICH POINT THE AREA AND REPLANTED WITH STARTING THE CYCLE BUT FOR NOW, DE-LIMBED AND STACKED ON CHIPPING MILL.

Tony: THE TREES THAT WE'RE TODAY WILL END UP BEING THAT PEOPLE WOULD USE EVERY DAY.

Joanne: LOGGING LOOKS A LOT WHEN THE SHOCKLEY FAMILY THIS 300-ACRE PLOT IN 1896.

Bobby Shockley: AT THAT TIME, TO HAUL AWAY SO THAT YOU USED OR HORSES AND PULLED TREES TO TO SNOW HILL TO THE SAW MILL.

Joanne: BUT THERE'S STILL BOBBY SHOCKLEY INHERITED THIS 16 YEARS AGO AND NAMED IT Bobby: THE NAME OF THE FARM IS NO MATTER, WHEN YOU ASKED HER IT WAS NEVER GOOD, IT'S JUST, I'M JUST ORDINARY.

SO, WE THOUGHT IT'D BE Joanne: BUT LIKE ALL TREE FARMS, THESE WOODLANDS ARE FAR FROM Tony: WHENEVER YOU'RE GOING DOWN THAT TREE FARM SIGN, SUSTAINABLE FORESTRY IS BEING WHICH IS REALLY A BIG DEAL.

Joanne: IN ORDER TO EARN THE WOODLAND PROPERTIES HAVE TO BE AND FIBER, BUT ALSO FOR OTHER Tony: THEY'RE LOOKING AT THAT YOU WOULD GET FROM FOREST CLEAN WATER, WILDLIFE HABITAT, PROTECTION OF WETLAND AREAS.

Joanne: EVEN RECREATIONAL AND HIKING.

AND IT'S ALL OUTLINED IN A FOREST MANAGEMENT PLAN.

FOR BOBBY, HAS BEEN A LIFELONG PURSUIT.

Bobby: I STARTED WORKING WITH WHEN AT THAT TIME IT WAS WE DID WETLAND CREATION.

WE DID FARM DRAINAGE.

WE DID FARM LAND IMPROVEMENT.

AND I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE SO THAT YOU COULD WALK IN OR MALLARDS OR A TURTLE.

AND I NEVER DREAMED THAT Joanne: UNTIL HE INHERITED Bobby: BEFORE 2000 WAS OUT, WE AND THEN IN 2001, AND CREATED 50-ACRES Joanne: BY 2004, THE WETLANDS CAPTURE WATER PREVENTING RUNOFF.

THEY ALSO ATTRACT VISITORS, A GOOD HOST, PUTTING UP NESTING Bobby: THEN AT GREENBRIER, IF ANYBODY COULD EAT SOMETHING BUT THEY DON'T GRAZE ON IT AND SO, BUT IT'S SORT OF A TRICKY JOB.

YOU USE THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF BUT DON'T HURT YOUR WILDLIFE.

Joanne: IN THE END, IS WHAT THE MARYLAND TREE Tony: TREE FARMS ARE A BEACON HOW PROPER MANAGEMENT AND FAMILIES LIKE THE SHOCKLEY THAT WE ALL SHOULD LOOK UP TO REALLY DOES BENEFIT ALL OF US.

Joanne: PROVIDING THINGS LIKE EVEN NATURAL BEAUTY, THAT TREE FARMERS LIKE BOBBY THE FOREST FOR THE TREES.

* WANT TO WATCH THIS STORY AGAIN, FIND MARYLAND FARM AND HARVEST TO SUBSCRIBE TO OUR CHANNEL.

AND DID YOU KNOW, MARYLAND HAS TOTALING ALMOST 110,000 ACRES?

LATER IN THE SHOW, AL SPOLER BUT BEFORE WE GO TO AL, AT INNOVATIVE MEN AND WOMEN SAFER WAYS TO MILK COWS.

IT'S THE QUEST TO BUILD FROM THEN TO NOW.

* BACK IN THE DAY, INTO BUCKETS WHILE SITTING THIS AGE OLD PRACTICE OF AND LABOR INTENSIVE.

AS THE DAIRY INDUSTRY GREW, MAKING IT DIFFICULT FOR FARMERS VARIOUS PRESSURE AND VACUUM IN THE MID-1800s, BUT MOST UNSANITARY, IN 1879, NEW JERSEY PATENTED AN INNOVATIVE HAND "THE HYGIENIC GLOVE MILKER."

A DECADE LATER, MARYLAND A FOOT POWERED MACHINE THAT BUT THE BIGGEST BREAKTHROUGH THE THISTLE PULSATING INSTEAD OF CONSTANT SUCTION, REDUCING PRESSURE ON THE UTTER.

SOON, ALL MILKERS WOULD USE IN 1922, THE SURGE BUCKET MILKER.

IT PROVED TO BE A SAFE, THOUSANDS OF FARMERS UNTIL IT IN THE 1960, DIRECTLY TO A STORAGE TANK.

AFTER TWO CENTURIES OF MILKING MACHINES CONTINUE WITH THE RISE OF FARMERS CAN SAVE TIME AND LABOR IMPORTANT DATA ON THE HEALTH AND IT SURE BEATS MILKING * YOU PROBABLY KNOW THAT DOESN'T COME FROM BUT DIFFERENT TYPES OF CATTLE WHICH IS WHY HAVING THE RIGHT FOR A FARMER.

JOE LIGO EXPLAINS THE WAY * Joe Ligo: MARYLAND IS HOME AND ALTHOUGH, THERE ARE AROUND THE WORLD...TODAY, THE ONES THAT ARE MOST POPULAR MORE MARYLAND FARMS RAISE THAN ANYTHING ELSE.

PRIZED FOR THEIR WITH NICE MARBLING THROUGHOUT, ON EVERYTHING FROM FAST FOOD AND THAT'S BECAUSE THIS BREED IS ALTHOUGH, SOME FARMERS RED ANGUS CATTLE.

WHILE LESS POPULAR RED AND WHITE GOOD MEAT, AND THE BREED HEREFORD COWS ARE KNOWN AND THE BREED TOLERATES BUT ENOUGH ABOUT MEAT.

LET'S TALK ABOUT MILK.

EVEN THOUGH MARYLAND HAS FEWER THAT STILL ACCOUNTS FOR AND OF THOSE, ONE OF THE MOST KNOWN AS THE CADILLAC OF COWS, MILK PRODUCTION OF ANY BREED PER DAY, SOME DAIRY FARMERS PREFER LESS HUNGRY JERSEY CATTLE.

WHILE, THIS BREED PRODUCES LESS, A HIGHER FAT CONTENT, INGREDIENT FOR CHEESE, OF COURSE, NOT EVERY FARM MANY HERDS HAVE A MIXTURE OF WHICH HAVE THEIR OWN ADVANTAGES.

AND THAT IS THE WAY IT WORKS.

* Joanne: AS ANY LIFE ON THE FARM CAN SOMETIMES BUT MANAGING A DAIRY FARM BRINGS AL SPOLER LEARNS FIRSTHAND ON AL.

* Al Spoler: THE GREAT AMERICAN ONCE SAID, THAN A PIECE OF BREAD OR EVEN A MUFFIN."

AND IF YOU SLATHER IT UP WITH IT BECOMES A FEAST.

AND THERE'S NO BUTTER BETTER STRAIGHT FROM THE FARM, * Karen Vaughan: WE HAVE A MIXED BECAUSE WHEN YOU'RE MAKING YOU NEED TO HAVE SOME A HIGHER BUTTER FAT, A BETTER PRODUCT FOR YOU.

Al: THE VAUGHAN FAMILY THE BEST MILK, BUTTER, WHICH MEANS RAISING ON THEIR 250-ACRE DAIRY FARM BUT THE VAUGHN'S WERE DON'T ALWAYS GO AS PLANNED.

Karen: EVERYTHING SEEMS Al: REGARDLESS OF HOW MANY YEARS YOUR CRAFT.

Karen: DAILY CRISIS FARM WHEN WE FIRST STARTED, EVERYTHING THAT YOU READ ABOUT IT DOESN'T ALWAYS HAPPEN.

THINGS ARE ALWAYS BREAKING, ANIMALS GET SICK AND STUFF.

SO, WE DECIDED THAT IT WAS Al: THE SEEMINGLY CONSTANT CHAOS OF A WAY OF LIFE THAT BRINGS Karen: IT IS A GOOD LIFESTYLE YOU KNOW, YOU'RE HERE, YOU'RE WITH THEM ALL THE TIME.

YOU KNOW, AND NOW, WE HAVE THE GRANDKIDS.

Al: THIRD GENERATION FARMERS ARE FOLLOWING IN THEIR THEY'RE EAGER TO HELP AROUND ESPECIALLY WITH THE LIVESTOCK.

Karen: THEY HELP SCRAPING THE BARN.

THEY HELP ME WITH THE CHICKENS, GATHERING EGGS AND FEEDING Al: AND NO MATTER HOW BUSY THERE'S ALWAYS TIME FOR PLAY.

Kim Vaughan: THEY'RE JUST GETTING TO THE AGE THEM ON A MISSION, GROWING UP THE WAY THAT Al: KIM HAS WORKED ON THE FARM TAKING IN ALL THAT IT OFFERS, Kim: I ENJOY THE OUTDOORS.

IT'S WEIRD, BUT I ENJOY I ENJOY WATCHING CROPS PLUS, I GET TO HANG OUT WITH AND THAT SORT OF THING.

Al: RIGHT NOW, FAMILY TIME FOR THE EVENING MILKING.

BUT FIRST KIM NEEDS TO PUT Karen: IT TAKES AROUND THREE HOURS OF MILKING IN THEY COME IN ON THEIR I MEAN, YOU DO SOMETIMES AND USUALLY WHEN ONE GETS UP THE REST OF THEM WILL FOLLOW.

BUT THERE'S ALWAYS SOME THAT Al: ALTHOUGH, MOST COWS SOME NEED A REMINDER FROM Dan Vaughan: WOO, WOO.

Kim: THEY PROVIDE A LIFE FOR US.

THEY PROVIDE A PRODUCT.

IF THEY ARE NOT HEALTHY AND THEY ARE NOT GOING THAT IS A HEALTHY PRODUCT OUT.

Al: THIS HERD OF 50 WILL OF MILK TODAY, WHICH WILL BE AND EVENTUALLY MAKE ITS WAY OF BUTTER AND SPECIALTY CHEESES.

Karen: RIGHT NOW, ITALIAN, OR HORSERADISH, AND CHIVE, AND A HOT.

Al: ONE OF THE REALLY COOL AT DAILY CRISIS FARM IS WORKING WINE FLAVORED CHEESE.

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS.

THEY START WITH THEIR AND THEN THEY'LL ADD SOME AND THEY COME UP WITH A REALLY WHICH IS AWFULLY, AWFULLY GOOD.
