Franklin County is the most rural county in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and it shows! Farms, fields and valleys surround the historic villages and bustling towns. There is so much to do here - in our fine museums, educational institutions and cultural centers - but most of all, the great outdoors! Follow a back road, through a covered bridge, up into the hills and down again. Cruise the Connecticut River, ride the rapids of the Deerfield River between the green walls of Zoar gap. Listen to the blues in a bookstore cafe, once an 1830's mill, or chamber music in a tiny rural church. Find a local swimming hole ... and spend a night or two at a hilltop farm, in a gracious mansion or 18th century homestead, in villages that have changed little since the 19th century. http://www.franklincc.org/index.php/about-us
