This is the ending of the trailer for a new video series and blog on jobs and agriculture in New York.

This part of the video shows Wayne making hay for our horses. The song is a 19th century ballad quoted in the works of Thomas Hardy.

The story of jobs and New York agriculture is not about a return to the life of a previous century. But New York Local encompasses the timeless values of farming: self-sufficiency, competence, and sustainability. NY Local shows modern land-based jobs in all their complexity, and reveals the multiplier effects of agriculture on the economy of New York State.
