Goodbye Agway
AUBURN - In its heyday, before it was even called Agway, the feed plant off Columbus Street on the New York Central Railroad line was one of the largest facilities in New York for receiving and shipping grain.
Dozens of trucks and wagons during the corn and wheat harvest would form a line in front of the then-Grange League Federation Feed Store (GLF) that wound around the plant and down the street. Farmers waited overnight for their turn at the plant's large grain dryer.
On Thursday, the 75-year-old facility met the claw of a backhoe.
