Melford Farm is a historic plantation that was owned for over 140 years by the Duckett and Hardesty families. It is now owned by the Maryland Science and Technology Center at the intersections of routes 301 and 50 in Bowie, Maryland.

In 2006 a historical preservation commission approved the site plan for the former Maryland Science and Technology Center property, requiring the developer to restore the Melford mansion and keep the area's historical integrity. In June of 2008 the property owned by the center was approved for a housing developments with conditions of the historic house and the long term maintenance and restoration of the cemetery.
