The event was a big success—collecting almost 50 Christmas trees and other holiday greens and multiple boxes of food donations and $1,700 for the Lee Food Pantry, which serves residents from several communities in the area.
Berkshire Interfaith Organizing will feature an exchange of blessings between the Berkshire County immigrant community and local faith groups along with sharing of stories and music at Park Square in Pittsfield.
