Oswego County Legislator Barbara Brown recently presented a proclamation to Cornell Cooperative Extension of Oswego County and the Oswego County Dairy Promotion Committee which designates June as Dairy Month. Dairy farming is an important part of a healthy food economy. It leads agriculture as one of the top industries in New York State and represents a valuable market in Oswego County.
