DEC Recertification Credit Information:
Points are given for each event. In order to qualify for DEC credits you must pre-register and:
Provide your applicator ID number with your registration.
IMPORTANT: Take a photo/scan of your applicator ID and email it to cnydlfc@cornell.edu. Please include your name and address. If needed, you can text-to-email your ID photo to the above email address by entering the address in the 'recipient' line of a text message (where you would ordinarily input a phone number or name).
On the day of each event you will be required to attend the virtual meeting using your own device, even if you are in the same location as another viewer. This is important because we need to be able to know who is in attendance. You may log-in to each event as early as 12:30pm.
At the beginning of each event, log-in with your full name and pesticide license number using the DEC check-in link that will be posted in the chat box (again, on your own device that you are using to attend the event). At the end of each event you will be required to sign-out using the DEC check-out link in the chat box. To receive points for a given event, you must log in at the beginning and log out at the end. If you do not log-in and out of the DEC check-in/out link each day, you will not be eligible to receive points.

Mother nature has really been difficult over the last few days. Significant damage has been seen throughout NYS. Please let us know what types of damage your farm may have sustained during this time. This could be in the form of property damage, lost power, milk dump due to lost power, loss of livestock, loss of stored feed or growing crops.Farms are encouraged to DOCUMENT AND SHARE any impacts the weather may have had on their home or business. This could include structure damage, crop loss, inventory loss due to power outages, damage to equipment or fencing, and more.
If your farm experienced any sort of damage, please reach out to any of the folks listed below (or all of them). The more impact information that is collected, the greater the likelihood of a disaster declaration which can bring vital emergency support and awareness. The CNYDLFC Team will continue to collect detail and submit to NYSDAM and the EDEN network.
Reporting Weather Related Impacts (For your home or farm business)
- First, ensure that all the people and animals on your farm are safe, and that there aren't any unsafe working conditions created because of the weather (check your structures!). If there's an emergency, call 911 - don't try to manage it all on your own.
- Second, document all negative weather impacts for your farm and their estimated financial cost. Take photos, make estimates, and put it all in a safe place.
- Reach out to your insurance providers - farm, vehicle, crop, etc. to initiate the claim process as needed.
- Then, share your farm's damage with any (or all) of the ag support agencies listed below. We all work together to collect storm damage information and funnel it up to Ag and Markets which can initiate a natural disaster declaration.

1. It's free and easy!
2. Connect with more local customers. In the past year the MeatSuite.com farm directory had 8,300 visits from New York consumers. Farm profiles get as many as 25 views per month from potential local customers. We also spotlight MeatSuite farms on social media and bring attention and purchases to farms through highlights and giveaways.

While you're on MeatSuite, check out the "Creating Consumer-Friendly Bulk Meats" publication on the log-in page. It has tips on how to create bulk meat products that are easier for first-time buyers to say "yes" to.
