GREATER CATSKILLS YOUNG FARMERS COALITION Bari Zeiger & Tianna Kennedy nyfccatskills@googlegroups.com The Greater Catskills Young Farmers Coalition’s member farms are primarily small-scale family farms and meet monthly in Delhi, NY during the offseason or at farm tours/potlucks from May to October. Our chapter aims to foster the exchange of ideas and support among member farms and to lobby for local, state and national policies that benefit small farms. Though our Google group is only open to member farms and agricultural stakeholders, our Facebook group is open to the public—feel free to get in touch with us there and check for any updates and events. youngfarmers.org/chapter/nyfccatskills
