North Farm Citizens Association
North Farm Citizens Association
The North Farm Citizens Association, Inc. (NFCA) is the official Home Owners Association (HOA) for the subdivision of North Farm in the City of Rockville, Maryland. The NFCA is a non-profit legal entity established in June 1984, to benefit the homeowners. The objectives of the NFCA include:
- Promote and develop the common good and social welfare of residents
- Preserve and enhance the value of the property in North Farm
- Enforce or assist in the enforcement of the covenants restricting the use of the property in North Farm
- Act as a liaison between property owners in North Farm and local city, county, and state governments
- Engage in such other activities as may be to the mutual benefit of the owners of property in North Farm
The two largest roles the NFCA performs are social (Community Day) and Architectural Review. All exterior modifications to property need to be reviewed by the Architectural Review Committee (ARC). Typically, builders and contractors require sign off from an HOA before doing work (if they don’t ask for HOA approval, you should ask them why they don’t).
For more on the ARC, please visit our Documents section and see the Architectural Policy and Architectural Approval Request Form.
The North Farm Citizens Association is run by a group of volunteer homeowners. We have many opportunities for homeowners to get involved including:
Board Positions
Architectural Review Committee
Community Day
Directory Updates & Distribution
Listserv Administration
Website Administration
Learn more about volunteering by emailing us at NFCA@NorthFarm.us.

We have been in the neighborhood since 2008, first renting, and then buying when we were able to since we like living here so much. You may often see our daughter Rebeckah and our dog, Chicago, walking in the area. Our house is located at one of the elementary school bus stops, during the school year we get to see all the kids, dogs, and parents outside and get to know them.

We have been residents of North Farm since 1991. Barton & I raised our family here and have also enjoyed walking our Westies (first Marshmallow, now Abby) for the past 27 years in this friendly, beautiful neighborhood. I was a ‘block captain’ a few years ago. After attending Walter Johnson High School, I graduated from the University of Maryland College Park campus, taught school, played keyboard for a year in a small, local band (fulfilling my kindergarten claim that I would grow up to be a rock star), then graduated from UMd medical school in Baltimore. I currently work at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

We moved to North Farm in 2018 after having lived abroad for 15 years. We have two kids who love to roam the neighborhood with their friends and take advantage of the lovely North Farm Park. We are avid outdoors people and love the many state parks and greenery that the DMV has. My wife is a local, having grown up in Rockville and attended the University of Maryland, she now works as an attorney for the Federal Government. I am a marketing executive for a technology company, and am very much enjoying living in North Farm.
