Calling All Farmers! Please help us add contacts to our SWNY Farm Service Provider Directory!
This anonymous survey is to help further develop our ag service provider directory for SWNY producers to quickly access the contacts of local business and service providers who can help! Our current directory can be found here: https://swnydlfc.cce.cornell.edu/resources.php. We already have veterinarians, feed mills, fertilizer and lime, sheep shearers, meat processors, and tax preparers listed. We would like to know what other categories you'd like to see on this list as well as the names of helpful businesses you already know in your communities. Our updated directory will be released later this fall. Thank you for participating!
The survey will close on Wednesday, October 18th.
