<div>A late-April 2026 freeze caused devastating losses for farmers across Montgomery County, Maryland, damaging crops and threatening the livelihoods of local farm families. On June 16, 2026, Montgomery County was officially designated as a primary natural disaster area by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) due to losses caused by the freeze.
