We’re thrilled with our recent expansion into Starksboro, VT. This is Front Porch Forum‘s first step outside of our Chittenden County pilot… albeit a small step. Apparently, we’re not the only ones excited… 50 households signed up in the first week (7% of the town), despite no real marketing effort. And here’s a lovely comment from one happy new subscriber…
I just signed up and can’t wait to start using Front Porch Forum. Some friends in Burlington have it and LOVE it. I think this will be an incredible asset for our community. Thanks to everyone who helped make this happen. Yahoo!
Elated in Starksboro.
