Berkshire teens finding meaning in meaningful community work.
Pittsfield teens from all walks of life work side by side towards a common goal. They learn the value of working hard, the importance of communication and perseverance, and the satisfaction of living closely with the land in service of something that matters.
Farm & Farmer’s Market Crew
Meaningful work leaves youth feeling purposeful and capable. This program hires 42 teens a year in four seasonal Crews: Farm Crew (Summer, Fall and Spring) and Market Crew. In 2020, we plan to launch Truck Crew and a teen-run food truck, which will increase our hiring to 50 teens a year in five seasonal Crews.
