Description

Please join the Rural Maryland Council (RMC), Allegany Human Resources Development Commission, Garrett County Community Action and the Community Development Network of MD (CDN) for our Western Maryland regional meeting.

Register Here.

Agenda:

• Discussion about MARBIDCO.  The mission of MARBIDCO is to (from the website):

To help Maryland’s farm, forestry, and seafood businesses achieve sustainability and profitability through the provision of targeted business assistance and financial services that helps retain existing resource-based industry production and commerce, promotes rural and urban-edge entrepreneurship, and nurtures emerging food/feed/fiber industries.

MARBIDCO stands for the Maryland Agricultural and Resource Based Industry Development Corporation.  More information is on http://www.marbidco.org/

There are hardly any applications from Western Maryland entities to MARBIDCO.  Let’s change that!  MARBIDCO’s Executive Director Stephen McHenry will join us.

• Discussion about CDN’s and RMC’s legislative agenda as we prepare for the upcoming General Assembly.
