RFA's Mission
In the 1920s Rockland was a flourishing agricultural community with over 900 active farms, by 2003 only a few remained. Today, a new generation of farmers, community activists, local and county officials, food enthusiasts and active citizens are coming together around a common intention.
The mission of the RFA is to facilitate local sustainable agriculture in Rockland County.
