About Our Organization

Friends of Rural New York is a coalition of concerned citizens who have come together to support local and state legislation to stop the assault on our rural communities by livestock factories. We are farmers, rural neighbors, urban supporters, fishermen, hikers, small business owners, environmentalists, academics and other concerned friends of rural New York who are working together to protect the health, the air and water quality and the economies of the people who live in rural New York State.
