Sandisfield is a town in Berkshire County, Massachusetts, United States.

[1] Sandisfield was first settled in 1750 as Housatonic Township Number 4, and was officially incorporated in 1762.

The town was mostly agricultural, with rye fields and orchards filling the land.

Significant numbers of Ukrainian farmers moved in during the late nineteenth century, many of them running chicken farms.

Today the town is mostly rural, and one of the least densely populated parts of the state.

Sandisfield is bordered by Otis to the north and northeast, Tolland to the east, Colebrook and Norfolk, Connecticut, to the south, New Marlborough to the west, and Monterey to the northwest.

Sandisfield lies in the southeastern part of the Berkshire Mountains, along the western banks of the Farmington River.

A small portion of Otis State Forest also crosses the northern border of town.

The population density was 15.7 people per square mile (6.1/km2), which rank third to last in the county, and eighth to last in the Commonwealth.

Sandisfield employs the open town meeting form of government, and is led by a board of selectmen.

On the state level, Sandisfield is represented in the Massachusetts House of Representatives by the Fourth Berkshire district, which covers southern Berkshire County, as well as the westernmost towns in Hampden County.

Sandisfield, along with neighboring Otis, is part of the Farmington River Regional School District.
