Fecal Egg Count Mobile Workshop - Jamestown



Fecal Egg Count Mobile Workshop - Jamestown

Internal parasites are one of the most challenging and economically impactful concerns for sheep and goat owners. This workshop will explain why taking regularly testing fecal egg counts can help you with understanding your animals' parasite loads and dewormer resistance. Attendees have the opportunity to prepare and evaluate fresh fecal samples under the microscope and practice interpretations.

We will have fecal samples to evaluate and encourage you to bring some from your farm or homestead to practice with! 

Registering for this event will register you for the October 30th workshop in Jamestown. You will receive instructions for parking, the building location, and the room number via email 2 days prior to the event.

For any questions, please reach out to Amy Barkley, Livestock Specialist, at 716-640-0844 or amb544@cornell.edu.

This work is supported by the Northeast Extension Risk Management project award no. 2024-70027-42540, from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Institute of Food and Agriculture

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.
