Overview
The purpose of the Farm Directory is to connect consumers to producers of farm products, helping to strengthen the food supply chain across New York.
 
In February of 2022, Section 16(52) of the New York State Agriculture and Markets Law was amended to require the Department of Agriculture and Markets to create a directory that includes every farm in New York State.
More information about the amended law can be found on the Department website at agriculture.ny.gov/farm-directory .
 
Farms are either required to respond to this mailing to provide the requested information or to opt out of the listing. You can provide the requested information or opt out through the online survey below, or by visiting the Department's website at agriculture.ny.gov/farm-directory.  If you wish to reply by mail, a survey form has been sent with a pre-addressed return envelope. 
Your participation will help to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the directory.

Please Note: this is not an all inclusive survey. If you do not see the commodity and products you produce, reach out to the Farm Directory team and we can help make sure that your farm listing is accurate when posted.
 
More information about the Directory can be found on the Department’s website at
https://agriculture.ny.gov/farming/farm-directory.
