The Common Good Project which has been so successful in Greenfield is now available to residents of Amherst and the surrounding towns!
I hope you will join me in celebrating the BIG news that Atkins Farms Country Markets began accepting Common Good payments last week!
Common Good is a non-profit, social change organization using a payment card to enable the community to support local projects. Common Good account holders in Greenfield have funded several local businesses and non-profits – and as soon as we build our membership in Amherst – we can do the same!
Several Amherst businesses now accept the Common Good card (with more to come), including:
The Common Good card is really convenient and easy to use!

Every time you use your Common Good card you help our local community. I encourage you to get a Common Good account today and help us build an economy that works for the Pioneer Valley.
