Seward Observes Ag Literacy Day In Greene Co

Senator James L. Seward (R-C-I/Oneonta) will be in Greene County Tuesday, April 8, to observe Agriculture Literacy Day with Cornell Cooperative Extension and Farm Bureau.

Seward will spend the morning reading a book on maple sugaring to three second grade classes at Coxsackie Elementary School , 24 Sunset Blvd, Coxsackie. He will be joined by a representative of Farm Bureau.

Seward is a member of the Senate Agriculture Committee, and has been instrumental in securing aid for the state's dairy industry and promoting the wine/grape industry in the state. He has been honored by Farm Bureau in its prestigious "Circle of Friends," awarded annually to legislators who have been outspoken advocates for the state's agricultural industry.
