Adirondack Remote Worker Month
March 2026 –
A2i is partnering with several towns across the greater ADK Park to celebrate our community of telecommuters, freelancers, and location-neutral professionals to coincide with National Telecommuters Appreciation Week from March 1 – 7, 2026.
With an estimated 12,000 location-flexible workers living in the greater Adirondacks, it’s time to bring our digital community together in the physical world. Whether you are a tech-enabled professional, a creative freelancer, or a hybrid employee, this month is designed for you:
- Connect with fellow remote workers in your specific region.
- Enhance your engagement with your local community.
- Discover new coworking spaces and resources right in your backyard.
We are rolling out a series of gatherings in multiple pilot communities across the park.
