STAFF REPORTS
APPLETON — The Niagara County Farm Bureau will hold a picnic and policy development forum at 7 p.m. July 19 at The Winery at Marjim Manor.
As a grassroots organization, Farm Bureau relies on its members to make it aware of the local, state and national issues that should take priority.
At this meeting, the Niagara County Farm Bureau Board will listen to the concerns
and issues. It will then create policy statements for the membership to vote on at the annual meeting in October. Those policies are then sent onto the New York State resolutions committee to be voted upon at the December annual meeting. Once the members at the meeting have determined the priorities, Farm Bureau members and staff lobby to turn those policies into laws. It is
participatory government.
To RSVP, please call 716-735-7791. Hot dogs and Roasted Corn will be provided. Dish to pass would be welcome.
