From the Valley Calendar:
Chelsea community members are invited to work with a resource team of federal, state, business and nonprofit experts to identify next steps and resources to help envision a Chelsea community store. The meeting will be facilitated by the Vermont Council on Rural Development, in partnership with the Green Mountain Economic Development Corporation.
This meeting is a follow up to a community discussion on April 21 during which attendees expressed ideas and vision points on the structure, need and functions a store might serve and how to make sure it aligns with Chelsea’s existing needs and assets.
For more information, contact the Vermont Council on Rural Development at 802-225-6091 or jenna@vtrural.org, or email local representatives at firstbranchcollaborative@gmail.com.
