You are at the site for participants of the Biz Harney Opportunity Collaborative. The Biz Harney Opportunity Collaborative (BHOC) was formed in 2017, as a collaborative effort to help rural Harney County businesses start, grow and succeed while also helping to build a thriving business environment.

This website is where you can find information about the collaborative, current projects, resources, a calendar of meeting and event dates and more. For questions about the collaborative and anything you see here contact Anna Gahley at anna@highdesertpartnership.org.
