Beginning Farmer Training Program News Today

Cornell Cooperative Extension of Niagara County will again offer the Beginning Farmer Training Program, a hands-on certificate program for aspiring and beginning farmers and homesteaders.

“Step through the portal… where time is an illusion,” the event’s website stated. “Travel back to the Victorian age of Main Street Woodland when entrepreneurs ruled and gold won the west.”

This summer marks the 10th season for Unadilla Community Farm, a non-profit farm education center on the banks of the Unadilla River in West Edmeston.

Run by Cornell Cooperative Extension, the van brings fresh, local produce to communities with few other options for healthy and affordable food.
