Prospect Meadow Farm Barn Grand Opening!
Friday, June 12, 12 to 2 pm
Prospect Meadow Farm - Berkshire
717 Crane Avenue, Pittsfield

You are invited to join the staff at ServiceNet's Prospect Meadow Farm for a ribbon-cutting ceremony to mark the opening of their beautiful new barn.

It will be an afternoon of celebration featuring music, light hors d'oeuvres, and a first look inside the new barn, which will serve as a hub for farm processing, packing, cold storage, and our farm store.

The space will also expand our vocational training programs, creating more meaningful job opportunities for individuals with intellectual disabilities, autism, and mental health challenges.

This milestone would not have been possible without the generous support of the Executive Office of Economic Development and the Massachusetts Department of Agricultural Resources.

Tours, food, and festivities will begin at noon, with remarks and the official ribbon-cutting set for 1 pm.

Please RSVP to Amy Diehl, Senior Director of Communications and Development, at [email protected] by June 11 so we can plan accordingly. We cannot wait to celebrate with you!
