Kent County, Maryland
Kent County sits on Maryland’s Eastern Shore, hugging the Chesapeake Bay. Chestertown serves as the county seat and hosts a lively Tea Party Festival each year.
The population is small, just under 20,000, so there’s a real community feel. You’ll find wineries along the Chesapeake Wine Trail and plenty of spots for birdwatching at the Eastern Neck National Wildlife Refuge.
You’ll find a lot of farmland here. But seafood is a staple here, especially oysters and crabs. Simple, yet never dull, Kent County has a little bit of everything.
