Heather Devitt and Anthony Marris-Swann assisted Dan Sullivan and the Town of Richfield with their NY Forward Application. The town was awarded $4.5MM for public and private projects that will help revitalize the downtown area. Projects can include streetscaping, updating Spring Park, renovating and relocating the Village Offices, and a downtown fund for smaller projects targeted at businesses along Main Street.
MVEDD had the pleasure of moderating the Food to Fork Forum that was held at the Mill Pond Inn in Jefferson. The forum brought together farmers and restaurant owners to thoughtfully discuss how to bring local farm products to local restaurants.
