Community Soup Program

For Heart & Soil Collective’s Community Soup Program produce and ingredients are purchased from Berkshire County farms and used to make hearty soups we freeze then deliver for free to local seniors and families. 

Our Winter Soup Program provides ready-to-eat, healthy, hearty soup, helps decrease food waste for Berkshire County farms and creates meaningful volunteer opportunities as community members have a chance to share soup recipes and help cook for their neighbors. Along with wholesome soup, our participants get weekly visits from volunteers during the winter months when everyone is more secluded. In Lanesborough, Lanesborough Ambulance Crew help with deliveries, building trust and positive relationships with seniors and local families.
