I am south of Rochester, Ontario County. I am finding alot of good response
to what I am doing and am hoping to support myself with my farm. Scared to
death of this but am walking in "faith". I am wondering what publications
everyone subscribes to and are there organizations here in NY that would
offer support and help?
