New York Farm Bureau advocates for our members and brings issues important to our members into the public eye.
We want our communities to know about the challenges our farmers face and how these topics and decisions impact agriculture and the everyday lives of consumers. We work with media across New York and beyond to ensure our key issues get the awareness and attention they need to help NYFB effect change.
Media inquiries should be directed to NYFB Director of Communications Amanda Powers at apowers@nyfb.org.
