Adams Open Space and Recreation Plan Survey

Print Story | Email Story
ADAMS, Mass. — The Town of Adams invites the public to participate in a Survey informing the Adams Open Space and Recreation Plan. 
 
The Survey is available via SurveyMonkey. Town residents and visitors to the town are asked to weigh in on priorities for open space planning in the coming 10 years.
 
The survey is open through Dec. 1, 2025.
 
The survey asks respondents a variety of questions including demographic information, recreation and conservation needs and desires, parks improvements they would like to see in the town, what recreational facilities they use, and what policies the Town should enact to accomplish those things.
 
"Having a current Open Space and Recreation Plan makes the town eligible for Massachusetts State grant programs through the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs such as the PARC Grant (Parkland Acquisitions and Renovations for Communities),” said Seth Jenkins, senior community planner for Berkshire Regional Planning Commission.
 
The Town is working with staff from the Berkshire Regional Planning Commission to develop the Open Space and Recreation Plan.

America's Best Restaurants Visits Adams, Dalton Eateries

By Breanna SteeleiBerkshires Staff

M&J's Taste of Home's choices for the Roadshow crew to try. 
ADAMS, Mass. — America's Best Restaurants had breakfast in Adams and lunch in Dalton on Tuesday. 
 
The national media and marketing company spotlights independent eateries around the country and was back in the Berkshires to try two more local favorites: M&J's Taste of Home Diner and the Shire Tavern. 
 
M&J's owners Mark and Jeanne Lapier reopened the classic Park Street dining car almost two years ago and said they couldn't have done it without their customers.
 
"I say all the time, we can have the best food, but without customers, it's not going to get us anywhere. So, obviously there's a bunch of different components that make us successful, but customers are a huge part of that. So it's just, I don't know, it's very humbling," Mark Lapier said.
 
The Lapiers turned to America's Best, which features restaurants on its YouTube channel, to boost their promotion. The video crew's been in the Berkshires before, highlighting other restaurants
 
"They reached out to us in like September, we had actually, ironically enough, two separate customers nominate us," Mark Lapier said. "So they reached out and kind of told us what the program was about. And so we decided to start working with them, and this is a portion of what they offer with their promotions."
 
The diner asked customers on Facebook what should be cooked up for the day and got lots of suggestions — from lobster rolls to peanut butter cookies.
