KEESEVILLE Ñ The youth movement in local farm-to-table agriculture is continuing in the Champlain Valley, and itÕ s even drawing motivated young farmers from across the country. At least that is the case at North Country Creamery here. California native Ashlee Kleinhammer didnÕ t grow up dreaming of a life of milking cows in Keeseville. She liked cows as a child, but didnÕ t realize until she spent a year volunteering in Central America that she had a true love for the docile giants, and wanted to pursue a career in dairy farming. She found and attended a farming summer camp in Windsor Vermont in 2006 after finishing college, and from there her future was really just a matter of time. Ò I had never been east before, it seemed really enchanting,Ó said Kleinhammer. Ò I just love the personality of the cow. SheÕ s just so sweet and mellow.Ó After attending the camp for a year, she set out on an eight year tour of dairy farms around Vermont, working at farms, learning the trade, and above all milking the cows she loved. After the eight years, she discovered the Essex Farm in Essex. after reading the book Ò The Dirty LifeÓ by Kristin Kimball. Kleinhammer had been thinking about owning her own farm for some

Beer about to flow at Livingoods Restaurant “Dine to Donate” starting in June By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com PERU Ñ Big things are brewing at Livingoods restaurant in Peru. Jess and Matt Ray have been tooling up since fall in preparation of adding a brewery operation to their restaurant. The building has undergone extensive renovations to accommodate several rooms full of equipment needed to brew the beer, and the finishing touches are being put on the gear by local firm Mars Mechanical. They are tentatively eyeing the end of June as the time when the first glasses of beer will be poured. When they moved their business from downtown Plattsburgh to the former Crickets location in Peru, it was with an eye towards expanding to include a brewery. Though they loved their Plattsburgh location, the space, Ray said, just wouldnÕ t accommodate the equipment they needed to bring in.

But along with brewing up to 12 craft beers, the Rays have other changes in store as well. Jess Ray conceived of the idea of giving a portion of their proceeds from all Tuesday business to a different charity each month. Calling the endeavor Ò Dine to Donate,Ó the Rays will focus specifically on two types of charities, those that assist children, and animals. Their June Dine to Donate proceeds will go to a local animal shelter. Ò WeÕ ve wanted as long as weÕ ve been members of the community to find a way to give back. Plus weÕ re always looking for new ways to reach out to the community and let them know that weÕ re here,Ó she said. Along with making a monetary donation, Ray says that they will also try to pick a day when the restaurantÕ s staff can go to the shelter and donate their time as well. Ray says they are also working on expanding the live music they feature every Thursday and every other Saturday. Ò WeÕ re trying to build up things to where we are a destination, so people can count on us for good food and good beer, as well as entertainment,Ó she said.

Rep. Owens announces disaster relief

WASHINGTON Ñ Congressman Bill Owens announced the availability of federal economic injury disaster loans on Thursday, May 22. Available through the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), the loans are for the small businesses, agricultural cooperatives and non-profit organizations that suffered financial losses as a direct result of freezing outdoor temperatures from December 22, 2013 to April 17, 2014. The disaster declaration covers much of New YorkÕ s 21st Congressional District including Clinton, Essex, Franklin, Herkimer, Jefferson, Lewis and Saint Lawrence counties. Ò Freezing winter and spring temperatures can have a devastating effect on North Country businesses, including those whose work supports local farmers and ranchers,Ó Owens said. Ò These SBA loans help local companies and non-profits that suffered from the harsh winter and freezing spring to get back on their feet.Ó Loans can be for amounts up to $2 million with interest rates of 2.625 percent for private nonprofit organizations and 4 percent for small businesses, with terms up to 30 years. Eligibility and terms are based on the size, activity, financial condition and financial resources of the applicant organization. These loans are not intended to replace lost sales or profits but may be used to pay fixed debts, payroll, accounts payable, and other bills that could have been paid if the disaster had not occurred. With the exception of aquaculture enterprises, SBA loans are not available to agricultural producers, farmers or ranchers that are eligible for loans through other agencies. Ò When the Secretary of Agriculture issues a disaster declaration to help farmers recover from damages and losses to crops, the Small Business Administration issues a declaration to related businesses that are affected by the same disaster,Ó said Frank Skaggs, director of SBAÕ s Field Operations Center East in Atlanta. Completed loan applications must be returned to SBA no later than January 14, 2015. Applicants can apply online at disasterloan.sba.gov/ela. Loan information and application forms are also available online at sba.gov/disaster, by phone at 800-659-2955 (800-877-8339 for the deaf and hard-of-hearing) or by sending an email to disastercustomerservice@sba.gov. Completed applications should be mailed to: U.S. Small Business Administration, Processing and Disbursement Center, 14925 Kingsport Road, Fort Worth, TX 76155.

North Countryman Editorial

Supervisors: Accept the bid!

here is a right way to conduct business and a wrong way. The way in which the Essex County Board of Supervisors handled the bid from Keeseville businessman George Moore following the recent county tax auction was the wrong way. For background, George Moore attended the April 30 county tax auction and in good faith bid $49,500 for a cluster of four parcels that once held the popular Frontier Town theme park in North Hudson. The theme park has sat vacant for years, slowly disappearing into the Adirondack wilderness, and taxes have not been paid on the four parcels since 2006. Moore already owns the large A-frame structure at the entrance of the defunct park, for which taxes are fully paid, and his intent was to purchase the adjoining 88-acres for possible future development of a campground or summer camp. What happened following the auction is what truly has us puzzled. During a May 12 committee meeting, county supervisors voted 17-0 to reject MooreÕ s bid and instead accept a $60,000 offer made on behalf of the town of North Hudson by Supervisor Ronald Moore. Supervisor Moore said county officials had discussed not accepting a bid on the former theme park of less than $146,000, the amount of back taxes owed, and said the 88-acres has considerable value to his town Ñ possibly as a business park Ñ because the small community has virtually no private property available for development. In our opinion, the supervisor should be commended for his forward thinking, but the sequence of events that led to his offer was completely flawed. First, if the town were truly interested in the parcel, why not put a representative at the tax sale to bid alongside everyone else? Since the parcels had been seized by the county for back taxes, and therefore by default owned by county taxpayers, wouldnÕ t it be in the best interest of those taxpayers to receive as much as possible for the properties through competitive bidding? Sure, county supervisors reserve the right to reject any bid. But in this case they then turned around and totally undermined the bidding process by okaying what, on the surface, appears to be an insider deal with North Hudson. Supervisors owe it to the taxpayers and to bidders at future tax auctions to conduct these auctions in a fair and transparent manner, otherwise, it will affect how people bid at future auctions. Secondly, other than a few conversations during previous meetings, we see no record

of a minimum bid ever being posted on these parcels. A cursory glance through the material provided to bidders Ñ including George Moore Ñ shows no mention of a minimum bid. We presume this would be the basis of the lawsuit George is threatening Ñ one that supervisors would no doubt spend thousands more in taxpayer dollars defending. And, even if this unpublished minimum bid truly does exist, the offer on the table from North Hudson comes nowhere near the $146,000 owed in back taxes. At the same time, placing these parcels in municipal ownership would remove them from both the county and town tax rolls. As much as county supervisors love to bemoan raising taxes, it baffles us that they would want to remove properties with a full market value of $568,900 from the tax rolls. Finally, Ronald Moore may have the best of intentions, but this property has proven to be an albatross for the private owners who have invested in it, which is why the county is in this pickle with back taxes in the first place. So, why should residents of the town and county believe it can suddenly be converted into the Silicon Valley of the North Country? It is a super location with great ingress and egress to I-87, but there are a lot of similar locations in the Adirondacks that, like the former Wild West park, contain more tumble weeds than business growth. A look at the dozens of unoccupied industrial parks inside the Blue Line is testament to that. Perhaps the residents of North Hudson should be given the opportunity to vote on the purchase prior to it taking place. George Moore has been criticized by some for not developing the one Frontier Town parcel he owns and allowing it to fall further and further into disrepair. In his defense, however, he owned just a small piece of the pie and it now appears he is making an effort to restore the property to something that will benefit the town. We believe he should be given the opportunity to do so. History has shown the odds of a successful businessman Ñ who pays his taxes, by the way Ñ redeveloping a parcel into an endeavor that will benefit the entire region are far greater than a government entity doing so. In an effort to avoid litigation, George Moore has now offered $5,000 more for Frontier Town than North Hudson did. The board of supervisors is aligned to potentially vote on the matter during its June 3 regular board meeting. It is time they clean up this ethical quandary, and accept the bid offered by George Moore. Ñ Denton Publications Editorial Board

Style & Substance: On not letting people take advantage Dear Style & Substance: I am feeling so mad lately at Ò certain peopleÓ who seem to take advantage of me because I cannot seem to say no. I need a new way to cope with the way I feel and how to deal with them.

We would like to use a little re-phrasing to start; people donÕ t take advantage of you, you LET them take advantage! You can begin this transformation by internally changing your language and rewording your woes to get a fresh perspective. The words you use to interpret peopleÕ s or organizationÕ s requests create your attitudes and perceptions, which in turn inform your actions. Choose some new request responses that work with your decision making process to take charge of your relationships. The answer can be something as simple as, Ò What have you done so far?Ó when a friend or family member asks for help. Or, Ò What is the time frame/commitment you are considering?Ó when asked to join a committee or help in planning an event. Or, “I can discuss it briefly right now and then we will have to plan a time to move furtherÓ . As you can see, these phrases do not need to be aggressive, rather a Ô wow, that is a new responseÕ surprise to your friends, family and co-workers that will be the subtly assertive way you make your point.

Elmore SPCA

We sincerely believe in formulating the right words ahead of time, so when the moment arrives (which it certainly will), you will be prepared to deliver the blow of saying NO, THANKYOU in a very nice and natural way. Ò NoÓ without a bunch of excuses and apologies is a powerful tool to change your feelings of unfairness in your relationships. Often times we set ourselves up without knowing/thinking that is what we are doing. An example: we were recently with a friend who feels she must always answer her cell phone (that is a separate column!). She consistently feels put upon by the demands she believes others place on her. Yet, she responds with a YES to each and every request to occupy her time, setting herself up to be frustrated and show her exasperation to those people who Ò needÓ her

help. Another simple tactic is to tell people or organizations that what they need is very important and you want to give the request your full attention. Then either set a time to do it, tell them you cannot, or consider it based on the other priorities in your life. The goal is to be fully present to listen and participate in all interactions. Getting in the habit of not responding instantly and not regretting it later shows more consideration in the long run. Be polite in your response by giving a time that you will get back to them (and then follow through!). These strategies will help you become realistic about time and emotional energy.

Momma is now current on vaccinations, has tested negative for heart worm and is looking for her forever home. We might never know how Momma ended up running at large in the snow. However, we can insure that the rest of her life is spent in a safe and loving forever home. Please come in and meet this loving dog. She is a cuddler...who thinks she is a 40 pound lap dog! ***UPDATE***Momma is now spayed and is yearning to go to a new home. She really loves being around people and just loves a lot of attention. She is okay with some dogs while other dogs seems to rub her the wrong way. Come in and meet this peopleloving dog that will give you way too many kisses and take up way too much room on the couch and will always be there to give you lots of love!

Momma was found running at large in the town of Black Brook, New York. According to one concerned citizen the dog is actually from the town of AuSable and was re-homed to someone in the Lake Placid area. According to another concerned citizen the dog was dumped in the town of Black Brook. This dog seems to be very sweet and just loves to engage with people. We have seen no resource guarding against humans of any kind. It is unclear if Momma likes other dogs. When she first arrived she was very kennel aggressive towards other dogs, meaning she would bark at her kennel assertively

First Weekends From page 1

downtown businesses, First Weekends has started a movement that is in the process of invigorating downtown. Rather than rest on their successes, First Weekends is gearing up for a summer offensive that will build on their successes and continue to highlight the arts and businesses downtown. First WeekendsÕ Vice President Leigh Carter-Simonette was intentionally coy about an announcement. President Tim McCormick is scheduled to make during the upcoming June First Weekend. Carter-Simonette says McCormick will be making an announcement during the set break of the Blind Owl Band show on Saturday June 7 about First WeekendsÕ plans for the upcoming summer. Possibly the most visually noticeable aspect of First Weekends, and one that required the most cooperation between the group and two consecutive city councils, is the closure of certain downtown streets for pedestrian events. This has led some to specu-

North Country Creamery

www.northcountryman.com late that their goal is to emulate BurlingtonÕ s Church Street, the pedestrian thoroughfare that slices that cityÕ s downtown and has become a haven for street musicians, performers, and artists. To Carter-Simonette, nothing could be farther from their plan. Ò I want to keep Plattsburgh Plattsburgh, I donÕ t want to compare it to Church Street,” she said. “Our first year this community came together. There were all these people and businesses coming together to show support for Plattsburgh. I donÕ t think thatÕ s the same situation as on Church Street. ThatÕ s something to be extra proud of for Plattsburgh.Ó Along with invaluable community and volunteer support, Carter-Simonette points to the good working relationship they have had with successive city councils, and successive mayors. And now the feeling downtown, she says, is becoming something palpable. Ò ItÕ s just great to see downtownÉ there is something special in the air. There is something different going on, and you can feel it,Ó she said. First weekends started as many organizations do, with a few people asking how they can make a difference for positive

change. Carter-Simonette and downtown businessman Colin Read were planning on starting an evening Rotary Club. When interest in that project stalled, they teamed up with future First WeekendsÕ president Tim McCormick, who wanted to branch out from Adirondack Young Professionals. They teamed with the North Country Cultural Center for the Arts, who were working on a First FridaysÕ art project, and after bringing in several other essential people, First Weekends was born. With no budget and with most of their group having little experience in organizing an endeavor like First Weekends, Carter-Simonette says that their biggest hurdle was just learning on the run all the things that they needed to do behind the scenes, just to bring their vision to life. While the core group of First Weekend volunteers has remained fairly intact, they are always looking for new members and people willing to sit on various committees. People interested in helping First WeekendsÕ second year be as successful as their first, or even more, can contact the group through their Facebook page First Weekends in Plattsburgh.

time, knowing that she could only go so far working for someone else, and never gaining any personal equity. At Essex Farm, she also made several friends from the Champlain Valley who shared her love of farming. Ò My friends were like, Ô we should all start farms,Õ Ó she said. They pointed her to a dairy farm on the Mace Chasm Road, the former Clover Mead Farm, that had just gone up for sale. She visited the farm with her partner, Steven Goggins, but didnÕ t fall in love with the farm at the start. “When I first visited I said it had all the drawbacks I didn’t want. The pasture is across the road from the barn, so you have to cross the cows twice a day, which isnÕ t the best situation,Ó she said. Ò Then I changed my mind.Ó Kleinhammer and Goggins bought the farm a year ago, and named it North Country Creamery at Clover Meadow Farm. They currently milk 20 cows, and have 15 calves or heifers and two bulls. They produce milk, various cheeses and yogurt that they sell through their community supported agriculture program, and at farm stands from Saratoga Springs to Plattsburgh. Apparently though, Kleinhammer and Goggins have carved out enough time for yet another endeavor. Clover Mead Farm had featured a cafŽ on the premises, and after a year getting their farm successfully up and running, they have decided to open and run the cafŽ as well, after completing extensive renovations. The sawdust will barely be settled when they open the cafŽ on Friday, May 30, to feature sandwiches, salads and soups, plus produce from other local farms as well as their own. They will be serving breakfast and lunch, Friday through Sunday. Ò Last year we decided to open the cafŽ hereÉ this year weÕ re going for amazing.Ó Information about North Country Creamery can be found at www.northcountrycreamery.com, or at their Facebook page Facebook/North Country Creamery.

KEESEVILLE Ñ Danny Kaifetz, the man more responsible than any other for getting North Country Honor Flight off the ground, is stepping down. Kaifetz would not discuss the matter publicly, but sources close to North Country Honor Flight point to a row between Kaifetz and one of his most trusted staffers. The dust-up apparently occurred as a result of the order of speakers at the most recent Honor Flight trip May 17. Kaifetz was instrumental in starting North Country Honor Flight just over a year ago. Starting from scratch, they have since flown nearly 100 North Country World War II veterans to the WWII Memorial in Washington D.C.. Over the winter, North Country Honor Flight amassed a substantial war chest, after surviving their first year on a shoestring budget. Along with a flood of private donations, they have been the recipient of substantial grants from several of the upstate counties they serve. It is unofficial at this juncture who will be succeeding Kaifetz, who gave his last public speech as Honor Flight director on Memorial Day. Honor Flight has a scheduled meeting for Wednesday evening, which will likely address the issue of succession. Check www.denpubs.com for a report on that meeting.
