Ogden Receives Grant

OGDEN, Iowa---The City of Ogden has been successful in obtaining a grant of more than $52,000 to get technical assistance to support the development of a local foods aggregation network.

The grant is part of the rural Business Enterprise Grant program from the USDA Rural Development.
