Andrea Macko reports for Porcupine Soup that Rep. Antonio Delgado, State Senator Michelle Hinchey, and State Assemblyperson Chris Tague were at Black Horse Farms in Athens Sept. 16 hoping to create support for the Small Farm to School Act. The bill would provide a nickel-per-lunch subsidy when a component of the meal is sourced from a small, local farm from federal and state taxpayer funds. “New York is an ag state, and we have an incredible opportunity to bring healthier school meals to our children while creating new markets for small farmers and strengthening our local economies at the very same time,” said Hinchey.
