How you help

On any day of the week, we rely on volunteers. We could not do what we do without their consistent help.

About us

The Berkshire Food Project began its operations on a twice-weekly basis in January 1987. Its initial funds came from a “meatless meal” program at Williams College. For each student who was willing to forgo meat once a month, the College Dining Services donated (and still does donate) one dollar to the BFP. The BFP has grown from providing three meals each week in 1987 to now serving five days a week. Our meals are cooked from scratch and often use local ingredients.
