For the last 13 years, the Tioga County Soil and Water Conservation District has worked with local partners to host an annual event, Sundaes at this Farm. This year, the District had to make the difficult decision to cancel the event that attracts nearly 1,000 community members every year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. <\/p>\n

Each year the premise of the event remains the same, a free celebration of local agriculture that brings the public to a different farm where they are able to enjoy locally grown foods and other products while experiencing the farm firsthand. Additionally, attendees are able to meet and engage with the farm family and learn about agriculture from various agencies and businesses. <\/span><\/p>\n

Sundaes at the Farm is a cherished community event where you\u2019ll always find the Tioga County dairy princess speaking about the benefits of local dairy and serving milk punch; people eating free ice cream sundaes with locally made toppings; families shopping the farmers market comprised of various local foods and products, and learning stations staged throughout the farm where attendees are able to learn about different farm operations. <\/i><\/p>\n

With Sundaes at the Farm off the table for 2020, District staff went back to the drawing board. A big part of Sundaes at the Farm is the family farm video that is made beforehand for advertising purposes. Based on the success of these videos, the District began to visualize a small series of videos that promoted and showcased both local dairy farms and farm owners working to be good stewards of the environment. And so, Tioga County Dairy Tails<\/i> was born. <\/p>\n

This series of video\u2019s can be found on both the District\u2019s Facebook Page (www.facebook.com\/Tiogaswcd) and YouTube Page (search for Tioga County SWCD). A brief description of each video is as follows.<\/p>\n
