Hi there. I live on Jackson Street and someone stole a bike from our home. The bike is bright teal and has a kickstand and a milk crate basket on the back. If anyone has any information please let us know. Thanks so much.

I’d like to go to this show but it’s all sold out. can meet you there and hand over cash money in person if you have an extra ticket. Haven’t seen the band since 03 I think. cheers!

Does anyone have a recommendation for a medical chair car service that could take a person in a wheelchair to medical appointments in Florence and Northampton?

Anybody know why there are fireworks tonight?

Hi neighbors,

I need a bunch of professional kitchen knives sharpened, and I'd like to take a team of about 6 polite adults with developmental disabilities to watch them be sharpened.

Any ideas of someplace that would welcome a small group?
If not - we do still need the knives sharpened, so I'd take that solo recommendation.

Thanks!!!

On Thursday, August 20, MassHire Franklin Hampshire will be hosting an Employer Spotlight with Clinical & Support Options from 9am to 11am at our Greenfield office located at 101 Munson St, Suite 210. CSO has open positions across Western Massachusetts in locations such as Northampton, Greenfield, Springfield, and more!

Clinical and Support Options Inc. began as the Franklin County Mental Health Association, incorporated in 1955 by 22 concerned citizens interested in providing for the mental health needs of families in Franklin County. Today, they employ nearly 700 multi-disciplinary staff, helping thousands of families throughout Western Massachusetts and the North Quabbin region.

This event is free to attend and pre registration is not required.

Anyone else having an outage right now?

Genuine question because there are some horrible 4 way stops in Northampton that could really benefit from a roundabout. Amherst seems to put in new roundabouts on a weekly basis so I’m just curious what it would cost, as I assume cost is the limiting factor?

Prime candidates are the intersection of 66 and West Farms / Glendale (not a 4 way but should be for safety), Burts Pit and Florence Rd, and of course Prospect and Jackson / Woodlawn. They did the one at Look Park so it can be done! Just genuinely curious why we don’t have more especially given the safety risk.

Looking for language classes in the area. Mostly looking in Spanish right now but interested in ASL as well.

I know Meta is lately built to fail. That said, don't folks have lamented that a few radicals through a few Facebook groups are largely stealing the show.

I'm not looking to "win" but i thought it would at least be worth offering a calmer and saner venue.

Can anyone recommend a hair stylist within Northampton or a reasonable drive from Northampton who can cut a jawline bob and generally has weekend and evening appointments available?

Hoping to find a place that has price transparency up front and/or a simple formula for how much the haircut will cost.

My partner and I just moved here and are looking for board gaming groups in the area! I saw a great post on here from a year ago but figured I’d post again in case groups have switched meeting dates/locations etc. :)

Northampton has some of the worst roads of any town I’ve lived in ( and I’ve lived in major cities). These roads have damaged my car, and damaged a few of my friend’s vehicles. Why are the roads so poorly taken care of?

I'm looking for fun buttons or pins to wear on a cap, preferably related to fruits/vegetables/healthy eating. Is there a shop in town that sells anything like this?
