North Adams, Mass. — Hoosac Harvest's 15th Annual Seedling Swap returns to downtown North Adams on Saturday, May 24 from 9 a.m. to noon on Main Street near the corner of American Legion Drive.
 
All seedlings are free and attendees do not need to bring seeds to participate.
 
Attendees can bring extra extra vegetable or flower seedlings as well as cuttings or plants.
 
All donations go toward subsidizing CSA shares—weekly "shares" of a local farmer's produce over the course of an annual growing season—for people in the community. 
 
Most farm CSA shares are full for this season; contact Hoosac Harvest via kathykeeser@gmail.com for more information about subsidized shares.

Winter Storm Warning Issued for Berkshires

Another snowstorm is expected to move through the region overnight on Friday, bringing 5 to 8 inches of snow. This is updated from Thursday's winter weather advisory. 
 
The National Weather Service in Albany, N.Y., has posted a winter storm warning for all of Berkshire County and parts of eastern New York State beginning Friday at 4 p.m. through Saturday at 1 p.m. 
 
The region could see heavy to moderate snowfall rates of 1 to 2 inches per hour overnight, tapering off Saturday morning to flurries.
 
Drivers should exercise caution on Friday night and Saturday morning, as travel conditions may be hazardous.
 
Saturday night should be clear and calm, but warming temperatures means freezing rain Sunday night and rain through Monday with highs in the 40s. The forecast isn't much better through the week as temperatures dip back into the teens with New Year's Eve looking cloudy and frigid.
