Josh Frye,

 President

I've been a part of the Farmington community since 2013 and joined the Chamber of Commerce board of directors in September 2017. My favorite characteristics of Farmington are the small-town feel, the vibrant small business community and connecting with its business owners, and the sense of commitment to improving the quality of life for residents. I encourage you to check out the local small business community, with offerings from boutique clothing stores and good eats to medical professionals and contracting services. Farmington is a thriving community in NWA and a great place to call home.
