The New York State Empire Farm Days were held last week in Seneca Falls, August 5-7. Originally called the Potato Field Days when founded in 1931, this event has undergone many changes including name, location and size. After 75 years, the show has never wavered from its original mission: to bring farmers in the Northeast the newest techniques and equipment available in agriculture.
Yankee Farm Credit in collaboration with Farm Credit of Western New York and First Pioneer Farm Credit, sponsor a booth at this event. The theme of the booth was “Equipping farmers to succeed.” The objectives of the booth were to promote Farm Credit’s commitment to agriculture “Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow.” Especially tomorrow by conveying growth and promise of Tomorrow’s farmers.
UPDATE: One of the tractor winners was Zachary Swyers of Peru, NY. Here is Zachary with Marie:
