Areas of Interest
Grazing, Production, Management, and Marketing to Enhance the Viability of Family Farms
I started with the team as team assistant in 1999. In 2005, I was promoted to my current position as Small Farms Specialist. My responsibilities include conducting educational programs in grazing, livestock production, and marketing for commercial dairies and livestock farms in the 10-county region. I also conduct trainings for Beef Quality Assurance certification as a certified trainer. An important responsibility is working with beginning farmers.- Design and deliver educational programs that meet the needs of producers related issues pertaining to livestock production.
- Provide technical assistance on questions from the private and public sector through phone calls, monthly team newsletters, web site updates, farm visits, discussion groups, research projects, and meetings.
- Organize seasonal pasture walks.
- Collaborate with Cornell faculty, staff and producers on research projects and grants that address the needs of the NY producer.
- Target programs to grow, encourage and support beginning farmers.
