Together We Make Pittsfield Beautiful
Our goal is to create a welcoming presence in public sites throughout Pittsfield, Massachusetts with colorful plantings of flowers and ornamental shrubs.
Founded in 1989 by Arlia “Tommie” Bailey, Pittsfield Beautiful Inc is a non-profit organization supported entirely by donations and volunteers.
Our volunteers maintain nearly 19 perennial public gardens and 100 planters filled with eye-catching arrangements in the downtown area and surrounding neighborhoods.
We work closely with the City of Pittsfield to encourage beautification efforts that arise from partnerships between local residents, neighborhoods, community support groups, businesses, and the City.
WE ARE PLANNING ANOTHER ROUND OF PLANTING 40 MORE RAISED BEDS IN SPRING 2025
Pittsfield Beautiful, Downtown Pittsfield Inc, the City of Pittsfield, and MassDevelopment’s TDI have joined forces to replant the raised beds with native plants. Find out more on the Sustainable Landscaping page.
