There are many things that Oneida County is known for, but one of the most major industries here is farming. We can't eat or really live without our farmers and we owe them a great deal of gratitude and respect. That means respecting them as they move from field to field to get the job done.
It's no secret life on a farm is tough. Working from long before the sun comes up to long after it goes down, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. There's no time for sick days or even vacation. And there's no overtime pay until after 60 hours. But that may soon change in New York and it's not all good news.
