#RootedinSevern

Where business takes root

Township of Severn launched a pilot program in 2026 designed to shine a spotlight on the local businesses that help make our community strong, vibrant, and unique.

From April to August 2026, we’ll feature one Severn business each month through a story on our website and supporting social media posts. Each feature will highlight the people behind the business, what they do, and why they chose to build and grow in Severn.

Whether a business is brand new or has deep roots in the community, #RootedinSevern is about celebrating local success and sharing the stories that shape our Township.

The program supports the Township’s goal of working with local businesses, community organizations, and partners to promote Severn’s lifestyle amenities and economic strengths.

Why this program matters

Severn is home to a wide variety of businesses across many sectors, from construction and agriculture to retail, health care, manufacturing, professional services, and hospitality.

These businesses contribute to the local economy, create jobs, provide services close to home, and help define the character of our communities.

By sharing their stories, #RootedinSevern aims to:

celebrate local entrepreneurship
raise awareness of the businesses operating in Severn
strengthen community pride
support a positive business environment

How businesses were selected

Participating businesses were nominated through the Economic Development Advisory Committee (dissolved August 2026).

Nominated businesses must meet the program’s eligibility criteria, including being located in Severn and operating in compliance with applicable municipal requirements.
