W
hy shonld we support Saratoga County farms?
Saratoga County has more than 400 family-ovmed fa.rms
and 70,000 acres of farmland. But in the past four dec­
ades, we have lost nearly 25 percent of the county's
farmland. That's the fastest rate offarmland loss in the
Capital Region.
When we lose our fa.rms 1 we lose all the benefits they
provide: scenic landscapes and open space, access to
fresh local farm products, rural heritage and wildlife
habitat. Farms add more than $100 million annually to
Saratoga County's economy and contribute greatly to our
tourism industry.
The farm, wbkh has been operated by the Hanehan family since
1946, was one of the first fanns in Saratoga County to participate in
New York's Farmland Protection Program. The fann bas perma­
nently conserved 97 acres ofland located across from the Saratoga
National Cemetery on Duell Road. American Farmland Trust. Open
Space Project and the town of Saratoga were all involved in this
pilot project for Saratoga County.
