An In-depth Retrospective
Building GreenwoodNE.gov
While Greenwood, NE may not take up much space on a map, it draws visitors from across the Midwest thanks to its perfect spot between Omaha and Lincoln. The town’s businesses – like Yoder’s Amish Furniture and Baker’s Candies – showcase the best of small-town charm.
When Greenwood’s Board reached out, they wanted a modern, reliable .gov website that could serve residents and visitors alike. We worked closely to craft a site that tells Greenwood’s story and keeps the community connected.
If you’re a mayor or clerk with a vision for your town’s website, let’s chat! We’d love to help bring it to life.
"So easy to work with!"
