Testimonials

Susan Kormanik

Alford, Massachusetts
Member since 1967

A full 55 years ago, Susan was first introduced to Berkshire Botanical Garden, an institution upon which she has come to rely, and not just for salad dressing. BBG has been a brain trust for all things horticultural and an epicenter of endearing friendships. 

Jackie Del Rossi

Lenox, Massachusetts
Member since 1994

“I call BBG ‘my garden,’” says Jackie, a retired information technology professional who has been a BBG student and steadfast volunteer dating back to the early 1990s. She delights in sharing Berkshire Botanical Garden with others. During the season, she leads tours for visitors. Her BBG tours have become the gold standard.
