Hidden Canyon Farm participates in protection of Black Brook Watershed
Steve and Susan Olson own and operate a 40 cow/calf beef farm, specializing in high quality meat production. As stewards of the land, the Olson’s farm falls directly within the critical areas of drainage for Black Brook, the headwaters of Butternut Run and Sodus Creek Watersheds. They are working with the AEM program to decrease pollution and improve farm operations.
