Has a selection of strawberries, cherries, blueberries, rasberries, peaches, plums, pears, apples, pumpkins, summer squash, okra, peppers, tomatoes, eggplant, kale/chard, herbs, and flowers.  Check the website to see what's in season.

They have a market that sells apple cider donuts and homemade pies.  Also carry gourmet cheeses from nearby dairies, local milk, and grass-fed beef.  On weekends and some holidays they serve hamburgers, hot dogs, veggie burgers and grilled farm vegetables.  Hudson Vally hand-made ice cream also available.  

Mid September through mid October, they have Harvest Festivals on Weekends.  They offer entertainment in the form of hayrides and live music on select days.  Check the website frequently.   Not an "agri-tainment" establishment though.  

I have been told this is one of the most scenic farms.  Better than anything you'll find on Long Island or New Jersey.

Have farm animals but not a petting zoo.  You are welcome to observe their rabbits and chickens, but they are not hand-tame.
