Pasture Walk

Wednesday, August 20th, 6:00pm - 8:00pm

Location: Anthony Marco's Farm - Woodhull, NY


Join us on one of our region's sheep farms to walk their pastures and explore managing sheep in a frequent rotational grazing system. We'll discuss how evasive grazing techniques and frequent rotation leads to better pasture health, greater forage yields, and lighter parasite burdens in sheep and goats. We'll also cover:

  •  Evaluate hay samples and how to read their reports
  • Review how to interpret soil samples
  • Discuss how soil fertility impacts forage production
  • How to use evasive grazing to mitigate parasite pressure

The farm tour will be led by Anthony Marco and conversations on the topics above will be led by Katelyn Miller, Field Crops and Forage Specialist and Amy Barkley, Livestock Specialist with the CCE SWNY Dairy, Livestock, and Field Crops Program.

This event is free to attend

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.
