Farmers, landowners, local officials and other interested parties are welcome to join in the two final roundtables on March 26 and 27, in Lewis and Jefferson counties, respectively. Register now at www.farmland.org/nyagpvroundtables.
American Farmland Trust’s NY-NJ Regional Director Linda Garrett and Tug Hill Commission Executive Director Katie Malinowski presented to over two dozen participants at two agrivoltaics roundtables. Held in Oneida and Oswego counties late last month, the meetings generated meaningful questions and discussion between farmers, local officials, agency technical assistance providers, and others interested in learning how solar can be integrated in a farmer-first approach to agriculture in the four-county Tug Hill region. Circuit riders Heidi Tompkins and John Healt also attended to help take notes and hear from attendees in each of their respective counties.
