The Public Works Department will have a collection truck on-site at each concert.

“The Cheshire Department of Public Works and Department of Recreation invites everyone to support the Cheshire Community Food Pantry by donating non-perishable food items during the Bartlem Beats Summer Concert Series at Bartlem Park,” according to the Cheshire Parks & Recreation Department. “This community food drive will be a recurring event held in conjunction with the Bartlem Beats Summer Concert Series, making it easy to enjoy summer evenings while giving back to the community. Whether you donate one item or a full bag of groceries, your contribution helps to support local families in need. Together, we can make this summer's Bartlem Beats concerts a celebration of both community spirit and community service.”
