Dairy Girl Network CNY Peer Group Meeting - Grants

April 13, 2017


The topic for our meeting will be "Getting Grant Money to Help you Farm!". Erin Madden of FSA in Cortland/Tompkins County and Suzette Kocher with NRCS in Cortland County will be there to discuss what programs are available through their offices. Sarah Ficken and Tina Jacobs will cover what grants they have been able to receive as producers and give their experience.
Since we are still in the infancy of building our group, all "dairy girls" - Women who are involved in any aspect of dairy - are welcome to come! Feel free to bring a dairy girl-friend to the meeting. If you need to bring little ones, it's perfectly ok!

RSVP to:
-Betsy Hicks - 607.391.2673 or email bjh246@cornell.edu
-Sarah Ficken - sjs299@cornell.edu
