Similarly, our staff, volunteers and donors are what sustain Lollypop Farm. Our paid employees number some 75 people strong and they are the most committed crew of individuals I’ll ever know. They care sincerely and compassionately for each and every animal who comes through our doors. If our employees are caring, kind and compassionate they are only rivaled by our unpaid staff–our volunteers. Volunteers at Lollypop Farm outnumber our staff 7 to 1. That’s nearly 800 volunteers to 75 employees. To say our volunteers are the life-blood of our organization would be underestimating their contribution. Volunteers are involved in every aspect of our business from fundraising and foster care to dog walking and education. They are hands-on, seven days a week, to help save animal lives. And of course you, our donors, make everything that we do at Lollypop Farm possible. Without your unfailing support the animals in our community would certainly suffer. We are grateful for your support.

    Appendix The History of B Rochester Appendix B | The History of ROchester DRAFT - ROCHESTER 2034 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN B-1 The History of Rochester Early History 1803 A 100-acre tract in Western New York along the Genesee river was purchased by Col. Nathanial Rochester, Maj. Charles Carroll, and Col. William Fitzhugh, Jr. 1817 The Village of Rochesterville was formally established along the Genesee River, from which the City of Rochester would grow. 1823 Connected via roads, the river, and rail lines, by 1823, the Rochesterville village was a booming agricultural, milling, and industrial center, fueled by the opening of the Erie Canal. 1834 In 1834, with a population hovering at around 10,000 people, Rochester was incorporated as a city. 1838 By 1838, numerous flour mills were in operation in the Browns Race district, powered by the Genesee River’s mighty High Falls waterfall. Rochester soon became the largest producer of flour in the United States and earned its nickname, the “Flour City.” The population of Rochester continued to increase, attracting immigrants and settlers eager to put down roots in the bustling city. The rapid growth earned Rochester the distinction of being America’s first “boom town”. 1850S As the production of flour shifted to westward cities in the 1850s, Rochester’s economy was in a phase of transition. Nursery and seed businesses were thriving and beginning to dominate the local economy, rendering Rochester its second nickname, the “Flower City.” This new identity was enhanced by George Ellwanger and Patrick Barry, the city’s most influential horticulturalists, who cultivated over 500 acres of land into the Mount Hope Nursery.
