The new office, a collaboration between the CoE and Cornell Food Venture Center, offers:

• Business mentoring and connections to Cornell research and resources.

• Food safety testing and product development guidance in an on-site lab.

• Support for startups and established businesses to grow and succeed in New York state.

Assemblywoman Carrie Woerner secured $500,000 in state funding to help make the office possible. The office is located within the Cornell Cooperative Extension of Saratoga County at 50 W. High St. in Ballston Spa.
