Founded in 1778 and named after Sam Adams, the Revolutionary War patriot, (not the beer!) Adams is a picturesque valley town in beautiful Berkshire County. Nestled between Mount Greylock (Massachusetts’ highest peak) on the west and by the Hoosac Range on the east. Adams is abundant in scenery and natural splendor such as the Greylock Glen, Mount Greylock State Reservation and the Ashuwillticook Rail Trail to name a few.
Adams is a great place to live and raise a family. We offer quiet and safe neighborhoods with some of the best real estate values available in the Berkshires are to be found in Adams. We offer exceptional opportunity and affordable value, such as real estate, town services, taxes, education, dining, nightlife and outdoor recreation.

Over the past few years, Adams has seen a significant increase in restaurants and nightlife. Adams also offers a full calendar of community events for all ages through the year.

We love our school sports in Adams, but other school activities abound to suit all manner of interests.

The Magic of Memories
Dive into the Seasons! Unlock the Sensory Magic of Each Season for Kids. Reinvent Taste, Sight, Sound, Touch and Smell. Ignite Lifelong Memories and Enhance Childhood Exploration.
The Magic of Memories is a journey for the young and the young at heart, inviting readers to experience anew the marvel of each season. This enchanting book aims to open the door to a child's sensory perception, enabling them to vividly re-live special moments of the year as marked by the passing seasons. By highlighting the vibrant tastes, vivid images, ambient sounds, tangible feelings, and aromatic fragrances associated with each season, the book invites children to establish a deep connection with their environment.
Every page of this magical tome is a sensory adventure, serving as a canvas for children to paint their own experiences. The winter chapter, for instance, is not just about snowflakes and the Holidays; it's about the feeling of a warm blanket on a cold evening, the comforting smell of a warm fire, the taste of hot chocolate, and the sight of your breath in the frosty air. The summer chapter is not merely about sun and sand; it's about the texture and taste of ripe summer berries, seeing footprints disappear behind waves crashing on the shore, the sight of fireflies on a warm night, and the smell of barbecue in the air.
The Magic of Memories aims to instill in children a sense of mindfulness and appreciation for the world around them. Through this heightened consciousness, they can form lasting memories that shape their understanding and interaction with the world. This book is not just a reading experience; it's a sensory exploration, a memory creator, and a magical adventure rolled into one.
This book is an opportunity for children to explore the world in a more profound and meaningful way, while also encouraging them to be imaginative, observant, and inquisitive. It is a tool for parents and educators to make daily experiences more memorable and learning more engaging. Immerse your child in the magic of each season and let them create their own vibrant memories with The Magic of Memories.
Books will be available for purchase
Refreshments will be provided.
