BEA is proud to recognize Evergreen Start on receiving Spring 2026 Northern Border Regional Commission (NBRC) Catalyst Award. This funding will support regional childcare back-office infrastructure, providing centralized fiscal and operational management that helps expand parental workforce participation and job retention.

By strengthening the infrastructure behind childcare providers, this project addresses one of New Hampshire’s critical workforce challenges – helping parents stay I the workforce, supporting businesses, and contributing to community growth.

As communities consider future NBRC funding opportunities, now is a great time to identify local projects that can turn community assets into opportunities for workforce development and economic growth. To learn more about NBRC funding, visit https://www.nheconomy.com/nbrc.

BEA's Office of Outdoor Recreation Industry Development participated in the Connecticut River Watershed Partnership (CRWP) meeting last week, bringing together partners committed to protecting, enhancing, and connecting communities throughout the watershed.

The meeting provided a valuable opportunity to share successes, discuss challenges, and explore opportunities for collaboration across sectors and organizations. Together, partners focused on strengthening relationships, identifying watershed-scale projects and initiatives, and exploring how outdoor recreation can complement and enhance the important work happening throughout the region.

Outdoor recreation plays a vital role in connecting people to our natural resources, supporting local economies, and fostering a shared sense of place.

We look forward to building on these conversations and working alongside our partners to create a more connected, vibrant, and resilient resource development for the state. Appalachian Mountain Club

Congratulations to Collaborative Solid Waste Strategies NH on Spring 2026 USDA Rural Development Grant to conduct a feasibility study for an Advanced Materials Recovery Facility in Claremont’s Wheelabrator corridor.

Using the STOMP framework, the study will assess site options, regional tonnage and processing capacity, material off takers, and financial modeling to determine viability for a facility capable of substantial throughout, job creation, and revenue from recovered materials. It will also explore an eco-industrial approach that connects advanced materials recovery with manufacturing.

Community infrastructure can create new economic opportunities while addressing critical regional challenges. By exploring innovative approaches to waste management, this project could help reduce costs, create jobs, support local industry, and strengthen the region’s economic resilience.

New Hampshire has the BEST covered bridges! There’s just something magical about driving through New Hampshire and coming across one of these beautiful covered bridges. From the rustic wooden beams to the scenic rivers and fall foliage, every bridge has its own charm and a little piece of history.

Whether covered in autumn colors, surrounded by fresh green landscapes, or dusted with winter snow, New Hampshire’s covered bridges never disappoint. They’re timeless, picturesque, and full of that classic New England charm!

You can travel all over, but there’s nothing quite like the covered bridges of the Granite State! https://www.travelandtourworld.com/news/article/g9dlgfcogagn/
