Washington County Farm Bureau
Brian Ziehm, President
Washington 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 on the third Monday of each
month in the Farm Credit office. Members of the Board include:
President, Brian Ziehm
Vice President, Travis Rea, 518-854-3035
Treasurer, Tom Borden
Randy Walker, 518-686-1831
R. Harry Booth
