Since our inception in 2008, Greenfield Main Street has played a crucial role in the overall image and livelihood of downtown Greenfield. Our annual comprehensive programming includes Bikes in Bloom, a Murder Mystery Dinner, Tricks on Main, Boos & Brews, the Ho Ho Ho Holiday Breakfast, BOHO Holiday Market, and Skating on Main. And, since 2010, Greenfield Main Street has awarded over $142,000 in facade grants leveraging over $800,000 in downtown improvements.
Greenfield residents love the big-city excitement with all the advantages of a small town, including unique shopping and dining, special community events and gatherings, an active arts community, top-notch schools and an affordable cost of living.
