Rhinebeck, NY Farmers Market - A Great Place to Visit

What a wonderful way to spend a lazy Sunday morning! Rhinebeck, NY has many wonderful shops and restaurants every day of the week but on Sundays from Memorial Day to early November the village comes alive with the Farmer's Market. 

 The Farmer's Market in Rhinebeck takes place in the municipal parking lot in the middle of the Village of Rhinebeck from 10A to 2PM. A wide assortment of vendors set up their "wares" and the scene is a feast for the senses. There are wonderful smells, colors, textures, tastes and sounds not to mention the interesting people watching! As you stroll through the market (and yes your dog is welcome) =you will come upon fresh fruits and vegetables, fresh flowers, fresh baked breads and pies, home made pickles and relishes, local wines and organic poultry and meats. All of the vendors are very friendly and the prices are quite reasonable.

This past Sunday I visited many wonderful vendors and sampled their products. Breezy Hill Orchards makes wonderful home made fruit pies. Spacey Tracyshas awesome pickles and relishes. Three local wineries were at the market this Sunday: Alison Vineyards, Clinton Vineyards and Cascade Mountain Wineries. They all make very affordable and pleasing local wines. Clinton Vineyards makes a Cassis which is sweet and goes down really smooth.

Our Daily Bread had a long line of folks waiting for their fresh bread and rolls and Mead Orchards and Migliorelli Farms served up colorful fresh fruits and vegetables. If you are looking for truly stunning fresh flowers to decorate your home stop by The River Garden for a huge selection of flowers in even color imaginable.

These are not all the vendors that set up at the market but they are ones I personally visited this Sunday. So grab your reusable shopping bags, lace up your walking shoes and take a stroll through the market. I'm pretty sure

you won't be able to leave empty handed!
