Anyone who has shopped at LaBonne’s knows assistant produce manager   Brian Prince. He’s the fourth person in his family to work there and, at 28, he’s been a reliable employee of LaBonne’s for 12 years. During that time, he has lived with different roommates, including another LaBonne’s employee, and is currently living in Torrington with his father. He would love to live in Salisbury but his income has made living without a roommate impossible and home ownership inconceivable.        He says he loves the Salisbury Community and the nature that surrounds us. A home here would allow him to be fully independent and save him the hour and a half commute each day, the cost of gas and the wear and tear on his car. He’d be able to enjoy spending more time with family and friends and get more involved with the community. An affordable rental apartment, even a studio apartment in the $700-800 per month range, would make that dream come true. He’s looked for years for a home in Salisbury without any luck.

Young adults like Brian are necessary for our local businesses to succeed and our community to thrive. Whether we’re conscious of it or not, we depend upon them every day.
