This Labor Day week, we’re especially grateful for so many of our Blaine County workforce that commutes from Lincoln County.

Every day, hundreds of folks make the drive—early mornings, long hours, hard work—so that our valley can thrive. They grow our food, build our homes, keep our schools running, and support our businesses. Their labor sustains so much of what we some times take for granted. These workers and their families are essential to the well-being of our community, and at Shoshone Project, we feel that it’s critical that we show up to support them, too.
