An Agribusiness Outreach Forum will be held at Cornell Cooperative Extension of Niagara County (CCE) on Friday, April 5th, at 4487 Lake Avenue in Lockport. Attendees will have the opportunity to meet with representatives and hear about key resources from Local, State and Federal Economic Development and Agricultural Agencies. The event is free to attend but due to limited space preregistration is required.

The event is a great opportunity to learn more about tax incentives, energy programs and grant programs that are available to assist new and existing small and medium-sized farms and agricultural-based businesses that are looking to start up or expand.

Registration will begin at 8:30am and light refreshments will also be available at that time. The program will run from 9:00am until 11:00am and will include two separate panels of speakers with a short break and refreshments offered in between sessions. Panelists include individuals from the Niagara County Department of Economic Development, Niagara County Community College’s Small Business Development Center, Empire State Development, Farm Credit East, New York State Agriculture and Markets, and New York FarmNet.

At 11:00am, guests will have the opportunity to speak to representatives from the attending agencies and/or tour the WNY Food Incubator, CCE-Niagara’s shared-use commercial kitchen.
