BFAIR in Bloom Raises $40,000 for Programs and Services 

BFAIR is proud to share the outstanding success of our annual BFAIR in Bloom signature fundraising event, held Wednesday, June 4, 2026, at the Proprietor's Lodge. The evening raised an incredible $40,000 to support BFAIR's programs and services for individuals with disabilities and their families across the Berkshire region. 


Community members, business leaders, and longtime supporters gathered for a beautifully curated evening of craft tastings, decadent desserts, live music, and stunning floral design. Guests sampled offerings from Antimony Brewing, Berkshire Brewing Company, M.S. Walker, and Village Garage Distillery, alongside sweets from Berkshire Cannoli. The Flower Lab Bouquet Bar transformed the venue with breathtaking arrangements, Patrick Gray set the mood with live music, and Jessica Ann Photography captured the night's best moments. 


"We are still completely blown away by the beauty and generosity of this evening," said Theresa Denette, Interim COO. "The support we received from our sponsors, partners, and guests made this event truly extraordinary. Every dollar raised goes directly toward supporting individuals with disabilities and their families in our community, and that impact is immeasurable."
