I live in Richmond, VA and am new at this.  I have used high school
playing fields which aren't bad because there are usually a footbal field,
soccer, baseball and tennis courts (or various other combinations) that
when combined give you a reasonable recovery area for A-C's.  Use
streamers for your lighter rockets to reduce the recovery area.  Some
county parks can be very good as well with large field, but watch any
local ordinances on rocketry.  Some not too smart folks here sent a rocket
cruise style (horizontal) into a soccer player.  As you would expect,  our
privaleges were revoked.   

I'm looking for farm land as well.  Good luck!

Paul.
