The article notes a special honor for Haskell Yancey (in center at left), who serves on the steering committee of the farmer-driven Northern New York Agricultural Development Program, and his wife Jane (2nd from left). Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul presented a certificate of recognition to the long-time maple producers of Yancey’s Sugarbush in Croghan. Their operation is one of the oldest continuous maple businesses in the region.
