In the US, it's unlikely you would be "charged" with a crime.

Instead, foods are confiscated at borders and destroyed. This prevents certain insects and bacteria from crossing the border into the US food chain. This would include plants that are not indigenous to the US (including Hawaii and Alaska) because many can choke out native plants. They would confiscate live fish and animals for the same reasons. Birds are permitted, I believe, but only if declared an health certificate submitted.

Goods are a different thing. You would be made to pay customs, and likely a stiff fine for lying on the declarations form. There could be some goods they confiscate outright.

*The same things happen whether coming on foot, by vehicle, or airplane.

Can only the arresting county charge you with probation violation?

If you are arrested for a crime in a different county, the county you're arrested in will run your record and discover that you are on probation. There's a very high possibility they will contact your probation officer, who will then recommend you be charged with probation violation. It is, also, most likely that a condition of your probation is to contact your PO when you're contacted by law enforcement. Not doing so is a violation of probation. The most likely result is that you'll be charged for the new crime in the new county, and charged for the probation violation in the county in which your probation office is located. Keep in mind that the probation office holds jurisdiction over the entire state; not just the one county.
