CHANGE CAN ONLY HAPPEN WITH OUR COLLECTIVE VOICES
Ken Estes Jr
VISION &
PRIORITIES
As a passionate advocate for community development, agriculture, and social and ecological sustainability, my mission is to create positive change in our food systems while promoting social justice. With degrees in Natural Resources, Environmental Conservation, and Landscape Architecture, as well as a Master’s in Community and Economic Development, I possess a unique blend of skills to address our complex challenges.
I envision a future where everyone has access to healthy, nutritious food, where our communities are resilient, and where environmental stewardship is at the heart of our economy. Together, we can cultivate a community that thrives on collaboration, innovation, and respect.
I am dedicated to listening to the
needs of our residents and fostering
open dialogue. Together, we will
build a government that prioritizes
the voices of hardworking families
and ensures that everyone has a
stake in our future. That’s why I
started “U Are the Voices of the 24th
Congressional District of NY”—a
platform for all of you to discuss the
issues that matter most. Whether it’s
economic development, healthcare,
education, or public safety, your voice
is vital in shaping our collective
future.
With a commitment to protecting
our environment and investing in
local economies, I envision a district
where innovation meets tradition.
Let’s work together to create a
brighter future for the next
generation, rooted in shared values
and collective progress.
I am dedicated to fostering an
inclusive environment where every
individual feels valued and heard.
Through community engagement
and education, I strive to empower
you to make informed choices
about your food consumption and
participate actively in shaping a
more sustainable and just future.
I recognize that our journey
requires ongoing growth and
dialogue. I invite you to share your
thoughts on how we can improve
our engagement and work
together towards a more inclusive
community.

MEET Ken
Hello, friends and neighbors of New York’s
24th District!
I am Ken Estes, Jr., a 7th generation steward
of the land and farmer from Caledonia, where
my family has thrived since 1832.
I believe in unity over division, prioritizing collaboration and listening to community voices. Together, we can make a difference!
I’m running for Congress because I believe in a different approach – one that is firmly in the middle, focused on bringing our community together, not dividing it. As a proud seventh-generation farmer and steward of the land, I have dedicated my life to understanding and nurturing our environment.
With degrees in natural resources, environmental conservation, landscape architecture, and community and economic development, I have the necessary tools to drive positive change and ensure sustainable growth in our district.
My campaign is built on the principles of unity, collaboration, and respect for one another. I’m not here to serve a political party, but to serve you – the hardworking individuals and families of our community.
Together, we can cultivate a future where our voices are heard, our local economies thrive, and our beautiful landscapes are protected. Join me on this journey as we work hand in hand to make a better tomorrow for all.
THE BEST WAY TO PREDICT THE FUTURE IS TO CREATE IT
