Conservation Easements: Farm Transitions – A Cause for Celebration

Here’s an excerpt from the full article:

Nearby in Delhi, NY, is Platner Brook Farm, a family-owned sheep operation. Dominick and Dorothy Frabizio purchased the farm in May 2021. They employ rotational grazing techniques with their sheep and lamb, and recently added Belted Galloways to the mix with a primary goal of selling direct-to-consumer. In their own words, “We are honored and feel very privileged to be here working at keeping this a thriving farm. Land conservation is important to our family because once it’s gone, it’s hard to get back. Our goal here is to operate in such a manner that is beneficial for our animals, the wildlife and creates/maintains a diverse ecosystem.”
