CALYX BERKSHIRE DISPENSARY Calyx Berkshire Dispensary encourages conversation Calyx Berkshire Dispensary is your premier cannabis boutique and one of only four in Massachusetts that is 100% owned by women. Donna Norman, chief executive officer, sees her business as community-centric. Calyx Berkshire’s mission is to end the stigma surrounding the beautiful cannabis plant while educating the canna-curious customer on all things cannabis. The dispensary’s location, 307 Main St. in downtown Great Barrington, is a prime example of normalizing this industry — because it’s not hidden in the outskirts of town or tucked away in an industrial zone. Calyx Berkshire believes cannabis should be a conversation, not a transaction. “Our location and customer service set us apart from all the other dispensaries,” Norman

said. “Not only do we have a robust line of cannabis flower to choose from, we carry edibles, drinks, ice cream, concentrates, tinctures, topicals and CBD products as well. Clearly we are not your typical ‘flower shop.’” Calyx takes pride in having the best menu in town and is constantly bringing new and innovative products to market, she said. Customers never are rushed while they are shopping, and Calyx’s knowledgeable staff truly cares about their customers and making sure they understand all the product offerings. Although it may have taken three years to hurdle the many regulatory barriers, Calyx Berkshire kept its commitment to the community. Those partnerships include working with several nonprofit

organizations who share the same goals and vision. Daily they “Round Up at Register” to support the Elizabeth Freeman Center to help battered and abused women. Calyx Berkshire also was a gold sponsor of the Berkshire Busk Festival — an amazing, summer-long event that brought live entertainment to the downtown area. Calyx also works with Berkshire United Way to support the local community and is a proud member of the Southern Berkshire Chamber of Commerce. Additionally, Norman commissioned local artist Joel Haynes to bring Calyx Berkshire’s brand vision to life through a dynamic floral mural in the alleyway outside the store. It’s Important for Calyx Berkshire to bring art, flower and beauty to what used to be a dreary alleyway, Norman said. Stay tuned for details about an upcoming floral contest.

Meadow Farm – A local source for outdoor power equipment BY KAREN DAVIS

Sponsored Content Contributor

The showroom at Meadow Farm Equipment comes alive most mornings before the crack of dawn. The coffee is brewing. Lights in the retail shore and repair shop are on. And a team of employees stands poised to help serve the power-equipment needs of customers throughout the region. Located at 1160 Pleasant St., in Lee, Massachusetts, Meadow Farm Equipment bills itself as a “your trusted source for all outdoor power equipment needs.” The shop – which is open Monday through – sells and provides tune-up or repair services for chainsaws, generators, power washers, lawn tractors, push mowers, leaf blowers, trimmers, wood splitters and snow removal equipment by factory-certified technicians who not only will repair equipment but also professionally install plows or other power implements. And Meadow Farm

Meadow Farm Equipment 1160 Pleasant St. Lee, Mass. 01238 413-243-0777 Hours of Operation: Monday thru Friday 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. Closed Sunday Website: meadowfarmequipment.com Facebook: facebook.com/ MeadowFarmEquipment

will deliver to customers throughout the area their oversized purchases or heavy equipment. Meadow Farm’s goal is to make its services and products convenient for customers. “From small engine repair, plow installs, or a routine service on your equipment our techs can get the job done right — the first time,” the company states on its website.

In the beginning Owner Robert “Bobby” Piccolo founded Meadow Farm in April 2013 after having worked in the outdoor-power-equipment industry, and his vision was to have a shop that would provide efficient service for customers in south Berkshire County and surrounding areas – including northern Connecticut, the Pioneer Valley and eastern New York. By all accounts, that mission has been accomplished. Piccolo has said Meadow Farm found its niche in offering a variety of exclusive brands, such as Echo, Fisher, Husqvarna, and Stihl, and by becoming the “ideal destination for the right piece of equipment.” But the store also has been successful in selling safety and emergency equipment. When the weather forecast calls for another nor’easter to sweep through the region, Meadow Farm is the place to go to buy a generator that can ensure a home or business retains power, including various sizes and from companies such as Generac, Kipor and Briggs & Stratton. The store also stocks

shelves full of safety and emergency equipment, such as fluorescent visibility clothing, rain jackets, LED Strobe lights, eye safety gear, earplugs, road flares, cable wires, tow hitch ball and trailer wiring, junction box and signs.

More than sales and retail Meadow Farm does more than just sell and repair top-of-the-line equipment. Its employees also advise commercial or do-it-yourself customers on what might be the best piece of equipment based on what they are trying to accomplish, creating a loyal customer base that keeps coming back to Meadow Farm for its seasonal needs. As summer temperatures drop and autumn is taking over, Meadow Farm’s employees are helping customers prepare for winter with items such as shovels, gloves, ice melt, salt and sand, snow throwers, snowplow parts and visibility clothing. Meadow Farm’s stated mission is to provide high quality products and topnotch services, and the company says on social media that its mission won’t change any time soon. “Not only do we carry the best and most trusted equipment in the business, but we also service and fix your equipment, too!” Meadow Farm’s Facebook page states. “Whether your chainsaw needs a tune-up, installation of your snowplow, or fix your lawn mower, we have you covered.

How Shared Estates makes real estate investing possible for everyone If you’ve ever wanted to start investing in real estate but thought you didn’t have the money, you actually now have the chance. If you’ve ever wanted to own some of the most beautiful vacation rental properties in the Berkshires but thought you didn’t have the money, you now have the opportunity. Recently, laws were changed to allow real estate investment through crowdfunding, which means people can become investors for as little as $1,000. “Think of it like GoFundMe for real estate investment,” said Daniel Dus, managing director and general partner of the Shared Estates Fund, a carbon-neutral real estate development company. “Each project has its own SEC-registered LLC. Our investors are a part-owner in that property, which is owned by that LLC.” This fund is focused entirely in Berkshire County, and its goal is to save failing historic properties from the 1800s and early 1900s, to refurbish them and to install amenities such as private tennis courts, pools, spas and even virtual reality gaming rooms and fine art. “Our most recently-completed project, the Freeman Berkshires Project, is an 11,300-square-foot estate in Egremont, Massachusetts. We equity crowdfunded $890,000, raised from 141 investors,” Dus said. His group tends to work with extremely exclusive properties that, in the past, have only been used a couple of times per year as second, third or fourth homes. Through their efforts, Shared Estates is able to make the homes accessible to the public through vacation rental markets by lowering the cost per person. One of the group’s properties, The Playhouse, was featured on Netflix’s “World’s Most Amazing Vacation Rentals.” “Our first project was built by George Westinghouse, our second by a senior finance executive at Mercedes-Benz. We did a project that was developed by the actor Christopher Reeve, and we’re currently closing on one that was built for a U.S. secretary of state,” Dus said. The idea is to target the small-group travel market, primarily multigenerational family travel or small groups, such as a family reunion or an executive retreat. And the per-person cost often will work out to be less than a standard hotel rate. Plus the group will have the entire property to themselves, which means you’re not sharing it with other groups or other guests. The group cost is roughly $100 per person per night. The group also tries to offer the best possible ame-

nities in their properties, such as Tesla cyber trucks, gaming rooms, outdoor and indoor activities and high-quality art from notable artists. “We have globally-renowned artists, like John Lennon pieces signed by Yoko Ono, Maurice Sendak (Where the Wild Things Are) and Caldecott medalist Jared Pinkney (The Little Mermaid) hanging in our properties to enhance our guests’ experiences,” Dus said. “In our Freeman Berkshires property, we have tennis courts, 40 acres of property, its own pond, two dining rooms, exercise rooms, gaming rooms and a library,” he said. “If you compare that to a standard hotel room in the Berkshires this weekend, it’s going to be $450 for a single bed and not much else. You just get your room.” Shared Estates aims to expose travelers to new experiences. For instance every Shared Estates property boasts Oculus virtual reality headsets. “When is the last time you checked into a hotel and there was an Oculus headset there?” Dus said. He is quick to point out that this is not a timeshare. Investors do not get to choose a block of time to stay at the vacation rental property. Rather, they are part-owners of that particular property, and they will earn a return based on their investment amount. “We do give investors a 15% discount off our nightly rate, and we give any guest who has a Berkshire County home address a 20% discount,” Dus said. “But we are not a timeshare. Full stop.”

Who can invest in a Shared Estates project? In the past, investing in real estate projects like this was often only for the extremely wealthy who could afford the hundreds of thousands of dollars or even millions of dollars of down payments and deposits. But thanks to the changes in law, if you have as little as $1,000, you could have invested in a Shared Estates project such as the Freeman Berkshires and owned a portion of that membership interest in that LLC. “This opens up real estate investing to the many at a time when home prices are escalating and real estate investing is getting further away for most people,” Dus said. “This is a real game-changer. We have folks from Wall Street who invest, but we also have a lot of people in the local community investing in our projects. “It’s especially compelling to me because I grew up here. My mother’s a teacher, and my father ran a martial arts school and was an engineer. So we would drive by these es-

tates, and I would look out at them but never dreamed of being able to set foot in them, let alone be able to own them.” Dus said teachers, truck drivers and other area residents have invested in a Shared Estates property. He calls the recent legislation a boon for small investors. “Historically, you had to be an accredited investor to invest in private equity deals, and you had to be worth a million dollars or more to be an accredited investor,” he said. “And now that dynamic has completely changed. You can invest very small sums of money as long as you’re over 18 years old.” Another goal of Shared Estates is to make each property as much of a public resource as possible. Each property donates 1% of its net income to a local charity. The Freeman Berkshires project donates to the Elizabeth Freeman Center, a Pittsfield-based nonprofit that fights the cycle of domestic violence. The Kemble project in Lenox will ALL PHOTOS: JERRIE GUILLERMO/SHARED ESTATES donate its 1% to the Lenox Above and right: The Brookman, Williamstown library system. Shared Estates also works hard to connect its guests with local service providers, such as names of local dance instructors, local yoga teachers, caterers and massage therapists. “The properties are a major driver of the local economy,” Dus said. “Plus, the properties drive property-tax revenues to schools and towns.”

How do investors make their money?

Above and right: The Freeman Berkshires, Egremont

Like most other investments, Shared Estates makes annual distributions based on the size of each investor’s pro-rata ownership of the total equity raised. In the Freeman Berkshires’ case, that was $890,000. So if you invested $10,000, you would own 1-89th of the property. As money is raised through all the different rental cash flows — Airbnb, VRBO, Flipkey — the investor earns back capital through what’s called The Kemble, Lenox a “waterfall,” which flows from top-line — or gross — income. Costs are deducted, and the rest of the cash — the net — is distributed to the investors over time until they get all their money back, plus an 8% preferred return on top of their invested capital. Once investors have earned their principle and that 8% preferred return, they receive 80% of all returns until they have doubled their money. Beyond a doubling of their initial investment, they receive 60% of the property’s returns.

Jackson is a happy-go-lucky 5-year-old beagle who lives to sniff! He came to Berkshire Humane Society through no fault of his own; his caretakers’ landlord would not allow them to keep him. This boy is super friendly with people but should be the only pet in the home. Older kids are OK, but young ones scare him. Jackson has a history of seizures, but kennel staff have seen a few (less than once per month) since he’s been at the shelter. He is currently not on any medication per the veterinarian’s recommendation since their occurrence is so infrequent, and he’s been doing fine.
