The second program in Historic Geneva's spring 2022 History Sandwiched In series will take place online on Wednesday, February 16 at 12:30 p.m. Anne Dealy, Director of Education, will focus on Finger Lakes agriculture in the 1800s. During the century, American agriculture was transformed from a mostly subsistence, family-run enterprise to one focused on market production. This development impacted farmers in the Finger Lakes region and throughout the northeast, laying the groundwork for our contemporary farming economy.
