Bradley Rickard, assistant professor at Cornell and leading expert in the economics of horticultural markets, comments on new legislation allowing roadside farm market stands to sell wine as well as expand wine trails designations on state roadways.

Rickard says:

“Similar to laws that have allowed wineries to sell their products at farmers’ markets and that have created wine trails, the new legislative change allowing wine to be sold at roadside farm markets will enable more New York State wine to be sold to consumers and will benefit the industry in some capacity.”
