Sandisfield

The Town of Sandisfield is a small rural community located in the foothills of the Berkshires. It is a residential town which still retains some of the farming families that have formed the core of the town for the last two hundred years. The town prides itself on the fact that it has kept its rural atmosphere and woodlands, and as a result the population doubles in the summer, with visitors and summer residents drawn by this atmosphere.

The two small industries in town are the New Boston Nursing Home and Carr Metal Products. Other businesses include lumber mills, family owned restaurants, and independent contractors. Sandisfield is also a community containing highly dedicated volunteers who respond to the needs of the town in areas such as the volunteer fire department, EMT squad, police, town offices and various children's and elderly organizations.

The small school system in Sandisfield has merged with Otis to form the Farmington River Regional School District, which provides a skiing program during the winter for the students sponsored by the P.T.O. The library and community center along with the town hall and new firehouse, comprise important community resources.
