Fonda, NY – Montgomery County will receive $75,000 in funding through the UDSA Regional Business Enterprise Grant Program to undertake a feasibility study pursuant to the creation of a Culinary Incubator. Together with a number of partners and the ongoing support of Congressman Tonko’s  office, we eventually  intend to establish Menus of the World, to be located on Amsterdam’s South side. 
 
The South side is experiencing a renaissance. With the improvements to Bridge Street and, especially, the forthcoming completion of the Mohawk Valley Gateway Overlook, all the dynamics are in place to drive wholesale renewal of this neighborhood.
