This district covers the portions of the County which are occupied
by various open uses, including farms, orchards, vineyards, forests,
and parks. This district is established for the specific purpose of
facilitating existing and future farming and forestry operations,
conserving water and other natural resources, reducing soil erosion,
protecting watersheds and reducing hazards from flood and fire. To
ensure the success of the above goals, it is necessary to maintain

character of this district should remain agricultural in nature, with
residential, industry or small commercial business permitted only
when it will benefit the immediate area without degrading the environment.
