Local Recipes
Food and place are intricately linked in the Berkshires. Whether you’re visiting or residing here, it’s easy to find locally sourced food – just visit our FARMS & ORCHARDS and FARMERS MARKETS sections or stop by Wild Oats Market.
What to do with that food may be another question. Fortunately area restaurants and cultural institutions were willing to share some of their favorite local recipes. Try one of these local recipes yourself:
- Refresh with your own Mezze cocktail concocted with local rhubarb.
- Cozy up with one of Lickety Split’s most popular soups.
- Travel back in time with a potato salad recipe from the Women’s Working Association of the White Oaks Church in 1897.
