Mayor opens DEMS SEEKING TO DEFEAT meetings to STEFANIK JOUST TO councilors, ESCAPE FROM THE PACK public » Stefanik Cont. on pg. 15
Procedure change will not include City Code alteration By Elizabeth Izzo STA FF W RITER
PLATTSBURGH | City committee meetings will be open to the public this year, a change in procedure that Mayor Colin Read says will allow for greater transparency. The shift from individual liaison assignments for each councilor to larger committee meetings open to both the public and any city councilor was unanimously approved by the Plattsburgh Common Council on Jan. 4. “I lament and really miss that we don’t have a better structure for committees within the City of Plattsburgh,” Read said at a public meeting last week. “I think this will be one step that will solve a lot of our biggest challenges, including simultaneously ensuring that the councilors are much more involved in the policy making in each department.” » Meetings Cont. on pg. 5

TUPPER LAKE | As the region sets into a deep freeze, several farmers are hitting the workshop circuit. The Wild Center in January will feature four local farmers as part of a weekly series designed to give producers the opportunity to share their stories with the public. The natural history museum’s mission has always been about humans and nature living together, said Simon Schreier, an interpretive programs coordinator. Food is a key plank in that: Where it comes from; who produces it, and how growing links into big-picture sustainability efforts.
“This rose out of a desire to show those farms and producers who even in the winter, provide healthy, sustainable and delicious food from farms here in the Adirondacks,” Schreier told The Sun. Vermontville-based Atlas Hoofed It Farm participated in the debut session last Saturday. This weekend’s session will showcase North Branch Farm, a diversified farm located in Saranac in Clinton County. The farm has a unique story. North Branch utilizes the agroforestry practice of silvopasture to ensure grass-fed beef production maintains the highest animal welfare and environmentally friendly standards. The figs, a centerpiece, have Italian origins. Owner Joe Orefice’s great-grandparents, Giuseppe and Antonia Orefice, acquired their fig tree from Faicchio, Italy in 1938, Giuseppe’s birthplace located east of Naples. Every spring, Giuseppe would plant his tree at his Connecticut home. “(Orefice would) harvest the sweet purple figs, dig up the tree in the fall, wrap the roots
