Can you imagine growing organic lettuce in water? We’ll see how the folks at Berkshire County House of Corrections do just that. They produce over 1000 heads of lettuce in their aquaponics lab ( a.k.a. greenhouse). Come see this amazing project!
***Please RSVP to Judy Zahn at
Directions: Take Route 8 north out of Pittsfield. The entrance is on the left, just before coming to the old Berkshire Mall. Follow the long driveway and park in the lot across the driveway from the greenhouse. We’ll gather in the parking lot. In case of rain, enter the main building, we can gather in the lobby.

What to do with that old refrigerator, mattress or computer? The Dream Green Recycling will pick them up and much more. “We’re trying to divert as much material from landfills as possible,” Patrick Kennedy said,” and we’re trying to make it easy, affordable, to recycle those items.” Come and learn what they will do with your old sagging mattress!
