New York Farm Bureau Foundation for Agricultural Education, Inc. is a charitable education foundation. Our mission is to inform and educate all New Yorkers regarding agriculture and to increase understanding of agriculture and to increase understanding between the farm and non-farm public.

Our goal is to raise the level of public awareness and understanding about agriculture, which will serve to alleviate misunderstandings that can manifest themselves as legislative proposals, unnecessary upheaval within the food system, superfluous regulations, excess costs, and a breakdown within the infrastructure of our communities and state. An understanding will

allow the general public to make "informed" choices. Learn more about this new ag education program for 5th graders, "New York Agriculture -- Touching Our Lives Every Day." Funding for this project was received from the Indirect Vitamins Purchasers Antitrust Litigation Settlement administered by New York State's Attorney General, Eliot Spitzer. Get the details from the announcement. Learn more about the "Journey from Orchard to Table" here. Information is also available here describing how you can become an "ag interpreter."
