Baltimore is famously recognized for its seafood, particularly its crabs, but it also boasts a lively produce industry. As the largest city in Maryland, Baltimore plays a crucial role in the state’s agricultural sector. In Maryland, nearly 30,000 acres are dedicated to vegetable cultivation, with sweet corn covering over 8,000 acres, followed by watermelon at more than 3,700 acres. Additionally, fruit production spans over 4,000 acres, with apples occupying nearly 1,800 acres.
