The Congregate Meal Program provides a nutritious hot meal at a central location at the noon hour. Elders "congregate" at a local meal site often located in a nearby senior center to eat and socialize. Congregate meals are often combined with recreational, and educational activities. Informative and interesting programs and guest speakers are regularly scheduled to follow the meals. All meals are cooked with no added salt. Sugar free desserts are available and lactate milk is also available. For more information call Elder Services (413) 499-0524. See menu pages.
