Dear Friends,
We are excited to share Berkshire Agricultural Ventures' newest Community Impact Report.
In this report, you will find impact metrics, client perspectives, program achievements, and other important measures of the work we are doing together to strengthen farms, farmers, and our community. Behind every number is a farmer or food entrepreneur's unique story about how BAV has helped their business become stronger and more viable.
Every day at BAV, we have the privilege of collaborating with local farmers and food producers who provide the food on our table, steward our land, strengthen our community, and create jobs and economic opportunities that support our rural economy. We recognize that our farmers and food entrepreneurs face numerous threats and challenges to their sustainability and profitability, including limited access to capital, rising land costs, economic and regulatory hurdles, and the increasing impacts of climate change. At BAV, we are dedicated to supporting them in overcoming these obstacles, and our newest report highlights our efforts in this vital work.
Please feel free to reach out with any questions or comments. And please consider supporting our work! We rely on the generosity of our community to create the change we want to see in our food system.
