Cherry Plain
Cherry Plain is a hamlet in the Rensselaer County town of Berlin in the Taconic hills, home to Cherry Plain State Park, a rural community of homes, woodlands, and a base of outdoor and service businesses. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms (custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing) for the Cherry Plain area's outfitters, farms, and service businesses, and we serve them from York County, Pennsylvania (across the state) remote-first, with on-site time when a project warrants the trip.

What would you build for a Cherry Plain outfitter, farm, or service business?
Usually a booking, rental, farm-stand, customer, or scheduling platform built around how your seasonal operation runs, so a Cherry Plain business works from one system instead of a paper calendar and disconnected apps.

In intake, customer email, booking, scheduling, and follow-up, so a Cherry Plain business gets real leverage and handles the park-season swings without scrambling for staff.

What does a custom platform cost a Cherry Plain business?
A single focused workflow runs from the high four figures into the mid five figures; we scope it to what your Cherry Plain operation actually needs and phase it so value lands early.

Typically 15–60 minutes during business hours and under an hour after-hours for critical issues, handled remotely with direct access for urgent problems instead of a ticket queue.
