🎉 BIG NEWS FOR DOWNTOWN FARMVILLE! 🎉

We are thrilled to announce that the Farmville Downtown Partnership has been awarded a $75,000 Downtown Investment Grant through the Virginia Main Street program! 🙌

This exciting investment will support our Downtown Wayfinding Project, helping make Downtown Farmville even more welcoming, accessible, and easier to explore for residents and visitors alike!

📍 Whether you’re discovering a new favorite shop, grabbing a bite to eat, or exploring everything our downtown has to offer, our goal is to make it easier to navigate, connect, and experience all that makes Downtown Farmville special.

This grant represents more than new wayfinding improvements. It’s an investment in our local businesses, our community, and the continued growth and vitality of our historic downtown. ❤️

We are incredibly grateful to Virginia Main Street and the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development for supporting our vision and helping us take this exciting next step!

We’re proud of where Downtown Farmville is headed, and we can’t wait to share more as this project moves forward!

🎨 Have you checked out the High Bridge Caboose Plaza lately?!

We applied for and received a $1,000 grant from Keep Virginia Beautiful and used it to turn the plaza into an interactive mural playground for the community! 🌈🚂

There are games, paths and different activities painted throughout the space, so take the kids, challenge your friends or just stop by and check it out next time you’re downtown.

This is also a little reminder of what Farmville Downtown Partnership does behind the scenes. We’re constantly looking for grants, partnerships and other opportunities that let us put money right back into downtown Farmville and create spaces that are more fun and inviting for everyone.

Sometimes it’s a big event. Sometimes it’s a project like this. Either way, we love getting to make downtown a little better. 💚

Huge thank you to Keep Virginia Beautiful for helping us make this one happen!

Now go play on it and tag us in your pictures! 🎨🚂
