Growing the Economy One C.R.O.P. at a Time
Hear how Southern is POWERing up to support and promote economic growth and diversification through the C.R.O.P.S. in Agriculture project. C.R.O.P.S. is working with state and local agencies to Create Resources, Opportunities, Pathways, and Support that will facilitate a cultural change for an economy that is primarily dependent on coal to one that supports and spurs entrepreneurial opportunities and growth in agriculture and agritourism in southern West Virginia.
