Bethesda's Rural Roots

Longtime Bethesda residents detail the history of their community, which has transformed from a rural area to the semi urban neighborhood we know today. Today, one of the last vestiges of the community's agricultural past is the Montgomery Farm Women's Cooperative Market, established in 1932 to provide farm women the opportunity to sell what they grew and handcrafted on their farms.
