The funding will help develop the Northeast Indiana Regional Food Network plan to cultivate new and expanded opportunities for existing businesses, nurture entrepreneurial growth and expand quality of life assets.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The funding represents the ongoing efforts to create economic and job opportunities in rural areas by ensuring that strategic investments are made in our small towns and cities. Rural businesses drive community revitalization by providing products and services to local residents as well as throughout the country and world. Projects like this spur important economic development and strengthen communities across Indiana,&#8221; said USDA Rural Development Indiana State Director Philip Lehmkuhler.<\/p>\n<p>The food network is dedicated to the mission of supporting and growing businesses that add value to agricultural and food products grown and produced throughout the greater Northeast Indiana region.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Northeast Indiana is home to a network of food businesses that provide a vibrant economy and enhance the quality of life in the region. By developing a collaborative regional approach to the food network together, we will capitalize on the region&#8217;s agricultural strength and create opportunities for future growth,&#8221; said Tim Ehlerding, executive director of Wells County Economic Development.<\/p>\n<p>Current and planned regional food network projects include regional food hubs, incubators, farm-to-fork initiatives, farmers markets, food festivals, cooking education, urban agricultural production, community kitchens and neighborhood spaces.<\/p>\n<p>By supporting local food businesses, Northeast Indiana will be able to attract and retain entrepreneurial talent, as well as support the development of new and unique businesses in the region.<\/p>\n<p>Last year, the Northeast Indiana Regional Food Network received $15,000 in initial funding from the Regional Opportunities Council, the investor board of the Northeast Indiana Regional Partnership. The funding was granted to support the partnership&#8217;s entrepreneurial pillar.<\/p>\n<p>To find out more about the Northeast Indiana Regional Food Network, contact Tim Ehlerding at tehlerding@wellsedc.com.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the Northeast Indiana Regional Partnership<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Northeast Indiana Regional Partnership was formed in 2006 to help build a globally competitive economy in Northeast Indiana.
