HAVRE – Bear Paw Development Corporation is pleased to announce Amy Revious of Havre has been selected as the Director of the organization’s Food and Agriculture Development Center (FADC). Amy previously held positions as Director of Youth Success for the Greater Gallatin United Way, Resource Property Management Manager for the Bozeman-based Human Resource Development Council (HRDC), and Energy Programs Manager, also for the HRDC.

“We are thrilled Amy has joined the team here at Bear Paw Development and will be serving as the lead in helping farmers, ranchers and other agricultural entrepreneurs with their value-added ag needs,” said Paul Tuss, Executive Director. “Amy has the energy and skill set to help folks in our region take their good ideas and turn them into reality.”
Bear Paw’s Food and Agriculture Development Center is one of twelve Centers across Montana, whose mission is to create stronger, more educated agriculture-focused businesses that are better positioned to access capital. In 2024, the statewide FADC Network secured more than $28 million for producers and agricultural businesses through private, state or federal funding and offered technical assistance and consulting to over 1,100 individuals and businesses.
“I am excited to continue the tradition here at Bear Paw of helping our area’s agricultural producers add value to the high-quality raw commodities that are grown here on the Hi-Line, with the ultimate goal of added profitability and a more robust ag economy for our region,” Revious said. “From help with accessing state and federal funding programs to assisting with developing business plans to on-farm alternative energy opportunities, Bear Paw’s FADC is a one-stop resource for ag entrepreneurs and is just a phone call or email away.”
