SPECTRUM NEWS VIDEO: Onondaga County Executive Joanie Mahoney joins In Focus to discuss the county's effort to promote agriculture beyond the New York State Fair, including On Farm Fest. Mahoney says the county has a $300 million economy around agriculture, so it pays to bring attention to the sector and support farmers. A year ago, thousands of people toured different farms around the county -- for free -- to see the benefits of buying local. This year's festival will take place on 11 farms throughout the county on September 22. In Focus airs on Spectrum News each Sunday, beginning at 9:45 a.m.
