Over 700 farmers’ markets* were held throughout New York State this past year, and an increasing number are now operating during the winter season as well. Winter farmers’ markets offer meat, root vegetables, baked goods, dairy products, honey, preserves —and an opportunity to continue to directly support the Hudson Valley and Catskill farmers while adding to the local winter economy throughout the State.
