BERLIN — Local and state officials are working to see if there is a way of financing North Country Growers to reopen it and re-employ area residents after workers learned near the end of last week that payroll could not be met. 

As of last Friday, the plant, which grows lettuce in state-of-the-art hydroponic greenhouses, is closed.
