About

Our businesses prove big impact doesn’t require a big city address. Maybe it’s the clean air that enhances our vision, the open spaces that let innovation run wild or the hard work that’s planted in our DNA. Tend a seed. Let it grow. That’s how our family farms thrive and our local companies become international players.

In us, they have an energetic partner and steadfast champion, an economic development organization committed to supporting and growing our business community through focused recruitment; business development assistance, guidance and referral; building and site selection services; and so much more.
