Henrico reports more than 200 new COVID-19 cases for second consecutive day
Henrico has witnessed its second consecutive day with more than 200 new COVID-19 cases – the first time that’s happened since Jan. 25 and 26.
The county reported 218 new cases Thursday, a day after reporting 203. On Jan. 25 and 26, it witnessed 235 and 239 new cases, respectively.
Dorey Park Farmers Market receives state funding
The Dorey Park Farmers Market was one of eight projects statewide to receive funding through the inaugural round of Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam’s Agriculture and Forestry Industry Development Fund Infrastructure Grant Program.
Henrico County sought the funding on behalf of the market, in order to add electricity for vendors; provide landscaping to outline the market space; add signage; and build a structure to house market management and SNAP benefits.
