What’s new:

• Town of Dryden Virtual Farmers Market
  We created the Virtual Farmers Market to help you find high quality locally produced meats, fruits, and vegetables. Get to know where your food comes from by purchasing it from a local farmer. This website will help you find local farms near you while also giving you a chance to learn how each farm raises their livestock or grows their fruits and vegetables.  Click Here to view the Virtual Farmers Market

• Strategic Transportation Enhancements Program

• Environmental Map Update
  With the help of the Tompkins County GIS department, we have converted the old environmental website into a new interactive map service. The new site works like google maps (zoomable and scrollable) and this updated service includes new environmental layers such as parks, preserves, and roadside wetlands. We are currently still working on this service, please be patient while we work out the kinks.
