    Yes I have done both. And I have equipment really old stuff but I do own it.

    Our Farm Credit Branch is in Batavia and they are maple wise. It will depend on your credit worthiness and net worth of course but they are a great potential resource. It docent hurt to ask!

    ALSO NY has both new and young farmer incentives though i am not up on the details.
    At least 5th Gen Sugarmaker
    30"x10'6" Vortex with Steamaway
    1000ish on vac with Atlas DSV065 Claw,
    ? buckets per how dumb i am feeling.

    Hey Mike, just got an email from wyoming cce and they are having a meeting on dec 16th down in Warsaw about farm loans for first time farmers. I'm not sure if you are a member , or if you need to be to go and see about funding your operation. I would contact Deb Welch down at Wyoming Co CCE and see if this would pertain to your situation.

    I looked at Farm Crédit East , but found a much better rate at Farm Buearu Bank . Very quick decision too.
