A great reminder as field work is commencing!

🚜🌱 Farming Season is Here! 🌱🚜

As you’re out and about in the coming weeks, you’ll start to see more tractors and farm equipment on our roadways.

Please remember:
🔸 Be patient and slow down
🔸 Don’t pass unless it’s safe to do so
🔸 Tractors are usually only traveling a short distance, so please be patient and give them the time they need to safely reach their destination.

Our local farmers are hard at work preparing fields, planting crops, and helping put food on our tables. Living in an agricultural county means sharing the road during this busy season—and a little patience goes a long way in keeping everyone safe.

Thank you for doing your part and supporting our farming community! 🌾

We’re excited to see the Whole Milk Act passed by Congress!
Thanks for the visit Senator Schumer! 🥛

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is touting legislation passed by the Senate and House that would once again allow whole milk to be part of school lunches.

Excited to see this pass, and honored to have been apart of Senator Schumer’s stops!

Today, NYFB celebrates the House passage of the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act, passed by the Senate last month. This legislation allows schools the choice to serve whole, 2%, 1% and skim flavored or plain milk as part of school meals, overturning the 2012 rules that allowed only fat-free or 1% milk to be served in schools.

“We are incredibly excited to see the passage of this legislation, which has been a top policy priority for New York Farm Bureau. This act will allow greater market opportunities for New York dairy farmers, while also providing essential nutrients to children in school meals,” said Ashley Sardo, Manager of National Affairs.

It’s been a busy few months getting everything ready, building and moving our calves into their new barn!
Prior to this we had individual hutches for our calves, now each calf gets their own pen in the barn while they’re on milk and then they move to the end into pens to introduce them to group housing!
Calves and calf feeders especially are loving the new barn!
