Specifically, the district is intended to accommodate and encourage agriculture, agri-business, agricultural and rural tourism, silviculture, and related uses and development. It is also intended to accommodate limited low-density single-family detached homes on lots of ten or more acres—primarily in the form of conservation subdivisions that conserve substantial open space and natural resources.
