From every corner of New York State, agriculture plays an important role in our lives as well as economy, and is something we must always make an effort to protect and support.

Yes urban farming where the soil has been polluted by years of toxic dumping. Not out in the country where the air is clean and the water less polluted. Unless of course you live in Ohio or surrounding areas down stream. Completely accidental and not planned at all.
