Rural Resurrection

Rural Resurrection is a blog about saving small-town America. Specifically, we are talking about the small towns in the Midwest. The quaint towns have dotted the countryside that truly defines the term “small-town feeling” that is so horribly misused today. These great communities are hurting, not only from “brain drain”, but the changing economy of the post-industrial era. Slowly, gracefully, many of these communities are fading away, remaining only in the hearts of those who once lived there.

This blog was created to provide information and resources to community leaders. Leaders whose hearts ache for ways to make their community better. Through this blog, we’ll discuss several subjects that affect small towns. We’ll also conduct interviews with people that know what works and how. But we’ll also celebrate the towns that have succeeded, and how they’ve turned things around.

Don't just survive, THRIVE!
