You are cordially invited to attend the Allegany County Farmer Neighbor Dinner to be held Wednesday, September 25, 2024 at the Lake Lodge located at 6107 Terbury Road in Alfred Station.
The evening hosted by: Cornell Cooperative Extension of Allegany County; Soil & Water Conservation District; Natural Resource Conservation Service; Farm Service Agency; & Farm Bureau. This year's Farmer Neighbor Dinner will have a different format than years past. There will not be a formal keynote speaker. Instead we would like to create a more casual social and networking event begining at 5:30 pm with a Cash Bar and Agricultural Business Exhibits. A great opportunity to browse while engaging with members of the farming community.
You will experience a gourmet Farm to Table dinner showcasing locally grown and raised products exquisitely prepared by ACES Catering while enjoying musical entertainment by Emma Tyme.
We hope you will consider joining us for the evening. Preregistration is required for this event.
Please contact Lynn Bliven if you have questions about the program or registration. 585-268-7644 ext. 18 or lao3@cornell.edu

Upcoming Events
Memoir Reading: Barn Gothic
December 4, 2025
Bath, NY
Barn Gothic is an elegy for family farmers and an intimate portrait of three generations laboring to be fathers and sons while their livelihood falls apart. Beautifully told with a farmer's restraint and a poet's grace, it is a story of personal loss amid corporate corruption and of finding a way forward when everything you know disappears.
NY Small Farms Summit 2025: Stronger Together
December 5, 2025
Alfred, NY
We hope you will join us on December 5th for the 2025 New York Small Farms Summit! This is an opportunity to meet other farmers and ag supporters, learn about research and education projects, and set priorities for future efforts to grow small farm success.
At the Allegany County site, we will focus on giving trees a chance and how trees build resiliency on small farms. Whether attracted to fruit, nuts, vegetables, fodder or shade, trees can be an integral part of a successful farming system. Join us as we explore the opportunities for resiliency that come from adding tree crops or managing wooded areas of your farm for agroforestry or silvopasture systems.
