We
opened in 1997 with a simple pub-style menu and a brewery and
bakery squeezed into our basement. Now our brewery is on Hope
Street; our beers are available throughout the Pioneer Valley;
and our menu has a variety of appetizers, meals, and desserts
that we hope will continue to satisfy and nourish you. Whenever
possible, we serve food grown or produced locally and oftentimes,
organically. For example, our veggie burgers are made by
LightLife™ Foods in Turners Falls; we use Snow's Premium
Ice Cream (made up the street); our burgers are grass-fed
beef from Foxbard and Wheelview farms in Shelburne, Mapleline
Farm in Hadley brings us our dairy products; the Pierce
Brothers here in Greenfield roast our coffee; our tee shirts
are printed next door, and the list goes on and on.
Many of our dishes are oriented around seasonal vegetables and
fruits supplied by over 25 area farmers – apples from Clarkdale
and Pine Hill orchards, greens and other vegetables from
Seeds of Solidarity in Orange, Paddy Flat Farm
in Ashfield, potatoes, carrots and other root vegetables from
Joe Czajkowski Farms in Whately, sprouts from the Gill
Greenery, seasonal fruit from Warner Farms and Pine Hill
Orchards and fermented vegetables from Real Pickles.
Our fish is delivered by Foster’s Market. We use goat
cheese from The Farm at Mine Brook in Charlemont and
Chase Hill Organic Farmstead cheese from Warwick is often
on our special ploughman. Our priorities are not only to provide
you with house-made sodas, freshly brewed beers, and tasty food,
but also to do it with as little waste as possible.
You might have noticed that no disposable plastic and a minimum
of paper products appear at your table. Also, you may be pleased
to know that all kitchen and dining room food scraps plus our
brewery's spent grains are composted or fed to area pigs, chickens
and cows. We offer biodegradable straws (upon request) made
of corn starch, have LED, rechargeable candles instead of petroleum
based, and many of our staff ride bikes and walk to and from
work. All plastic, cardboard, glass and metal is recycled. As
a result, even on our busiest night we have not created more
than one barrel of trash. We hope that the knowledge of your
participation in this ongoing act of environmental goodwill
enhances the time you spend at The People’s Pint.
