New Clothing Thrift Store Opens in Adams

By Breanna SteeleiBerkshires Staff

Carlo is honoring her late partner, Tom Bradley, who loved to thrift with her.
ADAMS, Mass. — Trisha Carlo took the leap to turn her online secondhand clothing business into a storefront on Summer Street. And named it in tribute to a loved one. 
 
Two T's Thrifting stands for Trisha and her late partner, Tom Bradley, who died in 2022. 
 
"We loved thrifting together, so I thought it was a way that I could honor him, and then also a way I could give back to the community," she said. 
 
Carlo has been selling clothes she's thrifted from her Facebook page for the past couple of years. She found the building at 64 Summer St. about two months ago and opened on Jan. 11.
 
"There's not many stores here. And I figured being downtown like this, people could walk in, especially in the summertime," she said. "I know there's a ton of people in the area that love to thrift so I thought this would be a really good idea for Adams."
 
Carlo also wants to make an impact on the community, donating clothing to children in foster care, unhoused people, and those who have lost their belongings, such as in a fire.
 
High school students sometimes do their community service hours with her, packing clothes bags for these individuals.
