The Agricultural Commission is a body of seven (7) citizens appointed by the Board of Supervisors.  Each Commissioner represents an election district.  The purpose of the Commission is to address the problems of sustainable growth, preservation of rural lands, and promotion and facilitation of agriculture, environmental integrity, land values and taxation.

The Agricultural Commission meets the 4th Monday of each month beginning at 7:00 P. M.  Meetings are held in Conference Room ABC, unless otherwise noted, located at 1300 Courthouse Road, Stafford, Virginia. The Agricultural Commission does not have offices in the County complex.  The Planning and Zoning Department works as staff to the Commission.
