We are a family run farm established in June 2007. We raise pasture fed Hereford cattle for beef sales. They start on pasture and finish on pasture providing for the healthiest, all natural beef possible. Naturally raised grass fed Hereford Beef provides more Omega-3 fatty acids, more Vitamin E & Beta Carotene. Raised Naturally and Tastes Great! In 2009 after losing my full time job I took my hobby to a whole new level and Red Fox Farm Jams & Jellies was established. With over 16 years of experience, I take pride in making the best tasting jams possible. Made with local products first, including our very own homegrown fruits and vegetables, Red Fox Farm Jams & Jellies are all natural with no artificial color or flavors.

Meadows Farm is a one of a kind farm producing the best quality Kobe beef with our unique herd of Wagyu cattle. Our farm operation began in 2002 with eight cows and one bull and has grown to over 200 head herd! We are the only farm in the Northeast supplying this type of beef. We provide our product to several restaurants all over CNY including the Empire Brewing Company and local consumers. Come on out to tour our farm in Cazenovia to learn about the American way of raising Kobe beef.

We grow and produce many products on our farm-vegetables, maple syrup, cut flowers, garlic and hay. We have been rebuilding our soils using cover crops, compost, minerals, rock powders and certified organic fertilizers with the knowledge that the best tasting vegetables are grown on healthy soils. Many things have changed since we started Lucky Moon in 1992, but one thing that has remained constant is our commitment to growing the best quality vegetables. This land that we farm is ours for awhile-we feel that we are stewards given a precious piece of earth to work and care for. It is our hope that we can leave it a little better than we found it.

RootsIn 2012, Price Chopper celebrated its 80th anniversary.

Immigrant Lewis Golub started with a lunch counter and dairystore in Schenectady, NY, and then a wholesale grocery ware-

house, with sons Ben and Bill working alongside him. Aftervisiting a retail grocery company in Long Island, theybraved the challenging economy of the early 1930s to opentheir own retail grocery store, with food and dry goodsunder one roof. They continually brought innovative ideasto market, including the Grower Producer programs thatencouraged local farmers by offering to buy the best of theircrop, and the Empire State Red Label program thatestablished the egg industry in New York State. PriceChopper has been woven into the fabric of the food andagriculture industries in New York State, and continues togrow its community ties in many ways.

Family Mealtimes MatterFamily Mealtimes Matter started in 2009 as acollaboration between Cornell CooperativeExtension of the Capital Region and PriceChopper. We develop educational materials, an

outreach campaign, recipes and fun ways to helpfamilies enjoy meal and snack time together. In2011, we added a new partner, Eat Smart NewYork, nutrition educators for SNAP nutritionassistance, to our efforts.
