Producer Appreciation Luncheon & Area Ag Agency Fair

January 26, 2017


Together, Cornell Cooperative Extension and Farm Service Agency are hosting a Farmer Appreciation Luncheon and Area Ag Agency Fair on Thursday, January 26th, 2017 from 11 am - 2 pm at the Dryden Firehall. This will be an opportunity for producers from any walk of agriculture to get together over a meal. We will be offering them a whole array of agencies, cooperators and services to meet and discuss opportunities with. In addition, Dr Melanie Hemenway, NYSCHAP coordinator will be our keynote speaker, discussing the Veterinary Feed Directive and other timely topics. We view this as coming together of the agricultural community in Cortland and Tompkins Counties, and a win for both producers and agencies that service these farms.
