Jefferson County Farm Bureau
Charles Eastman, President
Jefferson County Farm Bureau gives farmers and non-farmers alike the
opportunity to be part of an organization dedicated to supporting and
enriching the rural way of life. It provides an opportunity for
individuals involved in agriculture to join together and make their
voices heard. We are active within the political system on a broad range
of issues that concern every rural New York landowner, from taxation to
conservation. We work hard to promote public policy that protects an
owner's right to use land. We believe that a strong, viable agricultural
industry is beneficial not only to our economy, but also to our local
communities and our consumers.
Our Board of Directors usually meets the first Wednesday of each month at 7:30 p.m. at the Jefferson County Agricultural Development Corporation offices in Watertown. Jefferson County Farm Bureau is in District 6 and is represented on the New York Farm Bureau Board of Directors by Eric Behling. The field advisor position is currently vacant, so feel free to contact the area field advisor, John Wagner, who can be reached at 315-495-2258.
