Red Feather Brings Jobs to Walsenburg | Colorado Springs News
Description
Governor Jared Polis just announced Red Feather Industries is bringing 80 new jobs to Walsenburg, thanks to Colorado’s Rural Jump-Start program — and it’s not just about bricks and mortar. This employee-owned company builds affordable, modular wood homes for locals earning 80–120% of the area median income, tackling housing shortages while boosting rural economies. Backed by a $15K grant, four years of tax breaks, and personal income tax credits for qualifying workers, this move could be a game-changer for Huerfano County — with Trinidad State College cheering them on as a key catalyst for lasting community growth.
