Goodwill’s Food Truck Deliveries

April 2026 Every Penny Counts

Thank you for rounding up your purchases at the Wild Oats Co-op throughout April. Because of your generosity, we’re proud to deliver $2,511.70 to Goodwill Industries of the Berkshires and Southern Vermont in support of their Fighting Hunger in the Berkshires initiative.

Your donations help fuel Goodwill’s food truck, which delivers up to 9,000 lbs. of food every week to six North County food pantries and meal sites. This work ensures that families, seniors, and children across the Northern Berkshires have access to the nutritious food they need to thrive.

Berkshire Agricultural Ventures

Strengthening Local Farms Through Community Support

Wild Oats Market is proud to partner with Berkshire Agricultural Ventures (BAV) - a nonprofit dedicated to supporting local farmers, expanding food access, and building a resilient regional food system.

Thanks to our shoppers, Every Penny Counts truly lived up to its name. Together, we raised $2,277.49 for BAV to strengthen local farms and increase access to fresh, local food across the Berkshires in March 2026.

BAV also recently received two federal USDA grants to help connect Berkshire-area farmers with institutions including local schools, colleges, hospitals, and correctional facilities. These investments are major steps toward a stronger, more sustainable regional food system.
