Honoring Kelkenberg Farm upon the occasion of its designation as Large Business of the Year by the Clarence Chamber of Commerce, to be celebrated on March 19, 2026
This Senate Resolution (J 1530) formally honors Kelkenberg Farm, a family-operated agricultural and agritourism business in Clarence, New York, for being named "Large Business of the Year" by the Clarence Chamber of Commerce. The resolution recognizes the farm’s 40+ years of service, its role as a community hub offering educational programs and seasonal activities, and its employment of over 30 local residents. It directs the New York State Legislature to acknowledge the farm’s achievement at a ceremonial gala on March 19, 2026. The resolution has no binding policy effect - it is purely a ceremonial tribute to the Spoth family’s leadership and the farm’s contributions to agriculture and community life.
