LENOX, Mass. — William Pitt Sotheby's International Realty agent Tonia Scalise Ranked 2021's No. 1 Selling Agent in Central Berkshire County.
 
Tonia Scalise of the firm's Great Barrington and Lenox brokerages ranked as the top producing agent in 2021 by closed-dollar volume among all real estate agents in Central Berkshire County. 
 
She also achieved No. 1 status by volume in Pittsfield, No. 8 in all of Berkshire County, and No. 1 by both unit sales and volume for 2021 in the company's two Berkshire brokerages. In the company's Lenox office, Scalise has maintained that position each year since it first opened in 2017.
 
As she approaches her 35th year in 2022 selling residential real estate in the Berkshires, company officials say Scalise continues to set herself apart in the field with the unique areas of expertise and services she brings to clients. 
 
A Berkshires native, she has a deep knowledge of home construction and restoration, and she specializes in creative sales solutions and carefully calculated pricing strategies. She also supports her sellers with home staging comprising artwork from her own private Berkshires-oriented collection, a service she calls "Staging by Scalise."
 
"Tonia's vision for each property's full potential, her never-ending energy and her passion for the Berkshires with all its offerings truly make her one of our most outstanding agents," said Tim Donnelly, brokerage manager for William Pitt Sotheby's International Realty's Berkshires brokerages. "Her commitment to the entire real estate process and dedication to successful closings are second to none. I congratulate her on another incredible year and look forward to her continued success in 2022."
 
Prior to joining William Pitt Sotheby's International Realty in 2017, Scalise ran her own brokerage firm for almost a decade. An annual multi-million-dollar producer in Berkshire County, she is an Accredited Buyer Representative, a Certified Residential Specialist and an Accredited Staging Professional.

BRIDGE Hosts Earth Day 2026 Activities

GREAT BARRINGTON, Mass. — Multicultural BRIDGE will host its Earth Day 2026 celebration on Wednesday, April 22, at Solidarity House, marking both the opening of the growing season and the next phase of its Solidarity Farm & Garden at April Hill.
 
This year's gathering brings together state leaders, regional partners, and community members to advance a shared vision for environmental justice, food sovereignty, and climate resilience in the Berkshires.
 
Gwendolyn VanSant, CEO and founding director of BRIDGE, will moderate the panel with Lina Maria Polo Caijao. Panelists include Betsy Harper, chief of the Environmental Protection Division in the Attorney General's Office; 
Elizabeth Cardona, community engagement manager for the state Department of Environmental Protection; and Charles Redd, DEI officer with Berkshire Health Systems.
 
After five years of growing at the Great Barrington Fairgrounds, BRIDGE's Solidarity Farm has supported the development of a strong cohort of community growers. As part of this next phase, several Solidarity growers are now ready to expand beyond community plots into more independent, production-oriented farming.
 
The April Hill site in South Egremont represents the next evolution of this work, building on the World Farmers' Flats Mentor Farm model in Lancaster and adapting it for the Berkshire context of BIPOC emerging farmers. Partnering with Greenagers in a values-aligned effort across constituencies, trainings and agricultural resources.
 
This expansion includes new grower plots supporting transition to independent farming; expanded mutual aid and community distribution capacity; culturally specific crop cultivation; integration of climate-resilient agricultural practices, and youth engagement 
 
April Hill serves as a partner hub in the first year with expanded plots to meet urgent food security needs, supporting growers as they evolve our community-based growing model toward long-term land access, increased food sovereignty and economic sustainability.
