I’m sure many of you, even those who have gardens, get some of your veggies during the growing season from local Farmers Markets. But did you know there are still Farmers Markets that continue into the winter? There are a number of them in our area including Red Hook, Saugerties, Rhinebeck and Kingston.
I’m a regular vendor at the Saugerties and Red Hook markets and both are coming up this weekend.
The Red Hook market is tomorrow, Saturday, December 15 from 10:00 am – 2:00 pm. It’s located at the Elmendorf Inn, the oldest building in Red Hook, which is right next to the former IGA Supermarket on Rt. 9 in Red Hook center.
The Saugerties market is on Sunday, December 16 from 12:00 pm – 4:00 pm and the Saugerties Senior Center next to Cantine Field.
At both markets I’ll be selling my Italian Vegggie Morsels, Seaweed Morsels & Miso Morsels. All are gluten-free, have some ingredients I grew in my own garden and the Seaweed & Miso flavors are vegan.
You’ll also be able to purchase gift certificates for any of my Organic Gardening or Cooking Classes or for Garden consultations for the cooks and vegetable gardeners on your holiday gift list. Click here for more details.
Both markets also have lots of other great vendors & products.
At Red Hook you’ll find locally grown & produced organic & conventional fruits & vegetables, soaps, breads and pastries, wine, meats (including chicken, beef, & pork) and meat products (like sausage), eggs, and soups and sandwiches you can eat while at the market.
Saugerties has a similar mix for products on sale and also a number of craft vendors including folks who make baskets & yarns. For a more complete list of who’ll be at the Saugerties market, just click here and you’ll be taken right to their website. This is going to be an especially busy market with lots of great gift ideas for you.
