This week, and every week, we are thankful for the people who work to put food on our tables. From farms to food producers and stores that stock local products-they fill an essential need for everyone

Wherever you live, wherever you travel- look for locally grown, locally made and sourced

We have our last tours for 2025 in Northampton and Amherst next week. We pause tours during the holidays to let shops and restaurants work through their busy season. Gather some friends for a tour before the snow flies, good food & fun

The Northampton Food Tours start up in January, look for the Explore Amherst Tour starting in early April❄️

The cost of food keeps climbing, what to do? Buy from local producers and shops that stock local products.
- the money goes directly to the growers & producers
- a shorter supply chain means less mark up🤔

Today and through the holidays
