Applewood Lifestyle

The vitality of Applewood is a reflection of the people who live here – a diverse group of individuals from all over the country. Accustomed to lives of purpose and involvement, these individuals continue to contribute their energy and talents to the Applewood community and throughout the Pioneer Valley.

Residents are the driving force shaping the social, cultural and intellectual life of Applewood through committees, resident government, interest groups, volunteer activities and independent pursuits. Many Applewood residents continue to teach or engage in life-long learning through the renowned Five-College consortium of Amherst College, Smith College, Hampshire College, Mount Holyoke College and the University of Massachsuetts.
