Cortland County Poor Farm, also known as County Farm, is a historic poor farm complex located at Cortland in Cortland County, New York. The complex consists of 13 well preserved vernacular buildings, a concrete block piggery, and several frame outbuildings sheathed in clapboard or board and batten siding. The county purchased the original farm in 1836.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
