The Center's Growing Farmers Initiative will increase the numbers of small and mid-size farmers. The Center equips young farmers with the knowledge and hands-on experience to grow better-tasting, healthier food, and become responsible stewards of the land. Programs seek to remove the barriers that stand in the way of their success, whether those be access to land, prohibitive capital costs, or marketing and distribution challenges. Core elements of the program include intern and apprenticeships each year, technical trainings, the country's premier young farmer conferences, academic forums and courses. 3458190 true true false false false false false false false true true true false false true false true false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false true 29 0 true 84 true false false false false false false false false true true false 0 false false false false false false false false false false false X 10 5 true false false false false false false true true false false false true true true true false false true true false false NY X LISA ZIMMERMAN 9143666200 630 BEDFORD ROAD POCANTICO HILLS NY 10591 Richard Schneiders 1.00 X 0 0 0 PETER JOHNSON 1.00 X 0 0 0 PEGGY DULANY 1.00 X X 0 0 0 LISA ZIMMERMAN 33.00 X 64973 0 4390 JILL ISENBARGER 40.00 X X 173856 0 22497 JANET HAWKES 1.00 X 0 0 0 JAMES FORD 1.00 X 0 0 0 FRED KIRSCHENMANN 8.00 X X 0 85131 0 DAVID ROCKEFELLER 1.00 X X 0 0 0 DAVID BARBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 DAN BARBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 CHARLES GRANQUIST 1.00 X 0 0 0 238829 85131 26887 1 false true false Local Projects LLC 31 West 39th StSte 908 New York NY 10018 Consulting 104616 1 167238 1943712 2110950 Program revenues 900099 581566 581566 Income from produce, ETC 900099 694577 694577 Cafe proceeds 900099 67812 67812 1343955 133488 133488 0 0 488864 102181 386683 386683 386683 0 0 0 327730 170409 157321 157321 Parking fees 900099 26143 26143 Other Revenue 900099 67802 67802 93945 4226342 1981904 133488 0 0 0 0 344867 344867 0 1415769 1038055 125306 252408 20890 15070 521 5299 134944 97475 14295 23174 124647 81270 24887 18490 0 0 137484 137484 0 0 0 366780 32833 305213 28734 87671 3156 1099 83416 242951 196382 9234 37335 67105 4314 53597 9194 0 399745 399745 38975 15721 19038 4216 0 11073 6446 3952 675 0 0 944244 944244 221977 221977 REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE 197700 197700 Other farm store expenses 5154 5154 MEMBERSHIPS 1035 400 560 75 LIVESTOCK and Other Farm Exp 197740 197740 Board Expenses 14079 14079 508 508 4975338 3458190 1054132 463016 225032 96792 1410066 1559043 12000 4500 116787 126458 0 0 0 66106 70147 25050 39953 51965830 6369927 46371658 45595903 0 2497584 2806210 0 0 22 17 50724305 50299023 346431 477663 8652 13027 2787 1872 357870 492562 X 50366435 49744961 61500 50366435 49806461 50724305 50299023 X -748996 189022 X false true true X false false X 2669439 6559734 6721156 3040863 2110950 21102142 0 0 2669439 6559734 6721156 3040863 2110950 21102142 17448019 3654123 24073 44263 18940 750 133488 221514 0 52938 57379 223054 1066 67802 402239 21725895 7293079 0.16820 0.23100 X Part II, Line 17a--How we maintain the facilities for public access and enjoymentStone Barns Center is open to the public year-round, Wednesday through Sunday, from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm.
