Welcome to Saratoga! ...and to Welcome Home, your go-to guide for Life in the Saratoga Region!

Whether you’re contemplating relocating to the Saratoga area (does anybody think twice?!) or you’ve been here for years, Saratoga TODAY has put together everything you need to know in one handy informative community guide… after all, providing local news is what we do best! If this is your first time looking through Welcome Home, you will see that the entire magazine is color-coded, making it quick and easy to navigate your way through the pages. •

Would you like the phone number to your local library or town clerk? Browse the TOWNS OF SARATOGA COUNTY section.

•

Need a groomer for your newly rescued dog? We have a PET SECTION.

•

Interested In finding out about the school district in your area? No problem, turn to the PUBLIC SCHOOLS section.

•

Is mom or dad getting older and you’re looking for resources in the area? Flip to the SENIOR CARE section.

•

New to the area and looking for running clubs, yoga studios or healthy places to shop? Check out the HEALTHY SARATOGA section.

•

Entertaining friends or looking for a new restaurant? Check out our LOCAL DINING GUIDE

But before you dig into the details, I recommend that you spend some time in the COMMUNITY DEMOGRAPHICS section in the front of the magazine and find out what makes our county tick. Did you know Saratoga County is one of the fastest growing counties in NY …and the healthiest!

Life in Saratoga, as photographed by John Seymour

With a low crime rate, a high quality of life and world class entertainment and activity options… Saratoga is the place to be! (flip the page to hear what others think!) We proudly boast the oldest continuously run Thoroughbred race course in the nation as well as world-class polo. If entertainment and dining are your thing, then look no further… Stop by the Saratoga Performing Arts Center, aka SPAC, to check out some of today’s hottest stars, best ballets and a classical season second to none. And the culinary scene is the best north of Manhattan! So browse the book, mark your favorite pages, and enjoy life in our little corner of the world. We hope you enjoy this issue and I must close with a thank you to our advertisers… Without them, we wouldn’t be able to provide these beautiful publications, free of charge, to tens of thousands of readers. Please, mention us by name when visiting them. …and a special THANK YOU to our photographers who have given me the perfect way to portray what this area is all about. They are listed by name on page 6. And last but not least, if you have an idea for a category not listed in our guide, let me know and we will include it in the 2019 edition of Welcome Home. Enjoy life in the Saratoga Region!

CHARLTON LaRue Farms

Tucked in the southwest corner of Saratoga County and easily accessible from I-87 and I-90, you’ll be charmed by Charlton’s rural character, historic hamlets, and scenic landscapes. Boasting agriculture as its main industry, a drive or bike tour through Charlton’s rolling hills reveals dairy and horse farms, orchards and farm stands just around the bend. Glimpses of the past abound: in the Historical Society’s museum and one-room schoolhouse, the general store, and lively Tavern—its former building serving as a stagecoach stop in 1787. Known for its hardy settlers and once-prolific grist mills along the Alplaus Creek, Charlton’s friendly community welcomes visitors to explore its proud heritage.

ROUND LAKE The charming Village of Round Lake is profoundly tied to its rich cultural past, and still boasts the “campground” feel with its small, close lots. Residences and other structures are arranged in concentric circles radiating from the Round Lake Auditorium, with narrow streets and pedestrian walkways. This creates a hub and spoke pattern – and the secret to “village life” – you know your neighbors!

Shows and events highlighting art, crafts and antiques are regularly held on Village grounds and organ and musical concerts are still given in the Round Lake Auditorium. The Round Lake Library, though small, continues operation and maintains many books pertaining to Victoriana and Victorian architecture, being particularly useful to those seeking restoration information.

SARATOGA FARMERS' MARKETS The Saratoga Springs Farmers’ Market is a great year-round place to find fresh fruits, vegetables, homemade baked goods, local meat and dairy products and so much more. Photos by Pattie Garrett

The market started in 1978 as a small group of vendors in a parking lot and has since grown to more than 80 vendors. The Saratoga Farmers’ market has won numerous awards, and last year the market was named the #1 must-visit farmers’ market in New York State by I Love NY. Supporting local business is very important to the communities in Saratoga County, something that is especially true of the local farmers’ market. All of the vendors and their products must be produced locally (from within Saratoga, Schenectady, Washington and Rensselaer counties). As is stated on the market’s website, this means that when you shop at the market, you are buying unique products and supporting our community and our economy. The only exception to the “only local” rule is fresh Long Island-caught fish. From May to October, the farmers’ market is outdoors on High Rock Ave. in downtown Saratoga Springs. Shop outdoors and under the High Rock Pavilion two days a week: on Wednesday from 3-6 p.m. and then Saturday from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. You’ll find an incredible assortment of fruits, vegetables, herbs, locally-made cheese, jams, sauces, crafts, baked goods, meat, poultry, eggs, and dairy products in addition to local plants for your garden. There’s nothing better than fresh local veggies in the winter–here-in Saratoga Springs, you can taste that freshness all year-long! From November to April, the farmers’ market moves indoors to The Lincoln Baths in Saratoga Springs State Park. The market is open each Saturday from 9 a.m.–1 p.m. The winter market is famous for its variety. You’ll find naturally-grown winter veggies (including salad greens and tomatoes), meat, fish, cheese, yogurt, milk, honey, jam, pickles, organic soaps and much, much more! Plus, vendors offer ready-made foods so you can enjoy a breakfast sandwich or variety of lunch options, and even grab-and-go snacks like donuts and croissants while you shop. There’s much more to the Saratoga Springs Farmers’ Market experience than grocery shopping. This lively market is also a perfect place to meet friends, connect with your community and enjoy entertainment and family-friendly events. From chef demonstrations to live music, there’s always something fun happening at the market. Stop by and check it out! For more information, visit www.saratogafarmersmarket.org. Plus, check out Saratoga TODAY’s food page each week for recipes straight from the farmers’ market.

Ballston Spa Farmers’ Market

The village of Ballston Spa has a thriving downtown with a fabulous year-round market. From June through September, the market is held outdoors in Wiswall Park (corner of Front and Low streets) on Thursday from 3-6 p.m. and then Saturday from 9 a.m.-noon. From October through May, the market moves indoors at 50 West High Street (Cornell Cooperative Extension) one Saturday per month. For details, visit www.localharvest.org. Sponsored by the Ballston Spa Business and Professional Association, the market boasts a great variety of products and vendors that highlight our region’s agricultural offerings. You’ll find local produce, perennials, annuals, hanging baskets, bedding plants, herbs, fall mums, houseplants, dish and desert gardens, fresh cut flower bouquets, locally raised meat, pastured chicken, farm fresh eggs, maple syrup, honey, jams, garlic spreads, gourmet cheese spreads, stone ground flours, sprouts, local wines, culinary lavender and specialty foods like custom blended herb and spice mixes, mustards, granolas, hummus, and imported olive oil. The market also features a large assortment of baked goods including pies, cookies, cupcakes, crackers, bread, and pastries, as well as handcrafted items like custom embroidery, jewelry, candles, soap and fair trade items. What’s more, the Ballston Spa Farmers’ Market offers live entertainment and family-friendly activities throughout the summer. For more information and great local recipes, visit www.localharvest.org.

Clifton Park

The Saratoga Springs Farmers’ Market extends to Clifton Park from July–October. You’ll find the same level of quality and exceptional local products at the Clifton Park Market held Monday from 2–5 p.m. in the parking lot of Shenendehowa Methodist Church, which is located at 971 Route 146 (just one mile west of I-87 Exit 9).

Spa City Farmers Market

Spa State Park Sunday 10-3 Year round Lincoln Bath Tuesday (May-Spetember) 3-6 National Museum of Dance www.Spacityfarmersmarket.com

Greenfield Farmers’ Market

Runs every Friday from 4 to 7 p.m. in Middle Grove Park on Middle Grove Road, through the second week in September. The market will feature a blend of products you would expect to find at a Farmers Market including many fresh organic vegetables and produce, honeys, maple syrups, fresh eggs, specialty olive oils and spices, fresh fruits, baked goods and home-made pickles. On site will also be Euro-Delicacies, which specializes in Greek and Turkish prepared meals, and Pa’s Pistols Hot Dogs. You can get your Friday dinner right at the Market and bring it home to the family! “The Greenfield Farmers Market is more than just a place to shop, it’s a Friday night gathering place for the community,” said Louise Okoniewski, President of the Town of Greenfield Historical Society. For more information and weekly updates send a request to Ron Deutsch at mkd67@aol.com or visit greenfieldhistoricalsociety.com/farmers-market.html.

Written by David Delozier Photos by Randall Perry Photography

he City of Saratoga Springs proudly proclaims itself to be a place of “Health, History and Horses.” While all that is certainly worth bragging about, there is perhaps another feature that is prominent throughout the City, often overlooked, yet cherished as much, if not more by those who have one, than the former trifecta… and that would be the front porch.

In the Victorian era (late 19th century), the front porch was considered to be a handshake to the neighborhood. To not have a broad front porch facing the street was considered uncivil. There were no cars. People walked from home into town and back. Sitting on the front porch, engaging with the passersby, was the “social media” of the day. “Come on over. Let’s sit and chat. I’ve got some cold tea ready for you.” Bear in mind that walking a mile from town back to home was a bit of a jaunt. That little tea break was a welcome respite on the long walk home. And a chance to catch up on the gossip. The front porch was the catalyst. The connector. The community.

There were some dark times for the front porch, however. In the late 20th century, the front porch was nearly forgotten. Considered old fashioned, new construction abandoned it for the more trendy “back deck.” A private, often secluded and isolated appendage to the modern housing subdivision, the back deck, in effect, separated residents from each other. With all the action hidden behind the house, the conversations stopped. The connection was severed. One could even argue that the back deck was the death knell to the community.

The front porch with a Victorian house attached Within the City of Saratoga Springs, however, the front porch never went away. Forgone, but not forgotten, it would take a new generation to see what was always there, and rekindle the spirit, the passion, and the community that thrived nigh on a century ago, on the front porch. George and Tamie Ehinger are part of that next generation who has become smitten with the Saratoga front porch. Relocating from the west coast, the couple chose Saratoga Springs as their next domicile.

They flew out from San Francisco to check out a home on Circular Street, only to discover that another buyer had snatched it up. Down, but not out, the couple took a drive up to North Broadway, and there she was–a stately Victorian dollhouse straight out of a storybook, with an iconic mansard roof, and the most amazing porch–filigree ensconced gingerbread arches and columns that envelope the front and south side of the house. And it was for sale. The Ehingers had to have it. “We bought the porch,” said Tamie. “The house just happened to be attached!”

Remodeling with Reverence and Respect The old dame was showing her age. Peeling paint, some rotten wood here and there, but her bones were strong. It would need some work. The Ehingers were daunted at first with their new purchase, and then humbled to have the responsibility of caretaking such a piece of history. With great respect for this architectural gem, the Ehingers set about the renovation. The center part of the house was a series of small rooms with an awkward side entrance that was unheated. The couple decided to gut the entire section and make a great room. Bold pillars and arches were added to emulate the porch detail outside. The kitchen was opened up as well, allowing the sight lines to extend all the way to the floor-to-ceiling front windows – which now bathe the interior with light. The biggest task that Tamie took was the restoring the walnut stairwell and banisters. Someone in the past actually decided to paint it. The painstaking job of scraping all the paneling, the lathe-turned balusters, the fluting …took months. But Tamie’s hard work and dedication revealed the beauty that lay underneath.

Back when this house was built, the owners had live-in servants. The back part of the second floor had several rooms that were the servants’ quarters, and a narrow stairwell that connected to the kitchen below. The Ehingers reconfigured this area to become the master bathroom, closets and dressing area. The soaking tub is reminiscent of the old bath; a brick “chimney” was added to provide thermal mass and add character. The fully glazed walk-in shower down the corridor adds the modern necessity with style and grace. The former servant bedroom is now a walk-in closet. While the Ehingers have given this old house a much needed upgrade, there were some elements of the past that remain, as a testimony of the past. The formal living room in front has a huge full wall mirror, surrounded by a beautifully filigreed wooden frame; the adjacent parlor also has a similar large mirror. At first Tamie didn’t like them–their wavy reflection was a bit, shall we say, unflattering, to the reflected image. However, Tamie now loves them. They are like windows into the past, and she wonders at all the images that those mirrors have captured through the years. And of course, there is the front porch.

The feature that drew the Ehingers to this magnificent home has lived up to all its historic glory. Just like in the days gone by, neighbors have taken to walking the sidewalks. And when George and Tamie are hanging out on their porch, folks stop by to have a chat, share some gossip and some cold tea. On a summer’s afternoon, it’s their favorite place to be. Christmas time, the Ehingers take great pleasure in dressing up their old dame for the holidays. “These old Victorians really come to life at Christmas time, and the high ceilings allow for beautiful trees,” Tamie says. “When fully decorated, the house is like a scene right out of a Clement Clarke Moore novel.” The Ehingers are honored to be part of the legacy of this beauty on Broadway. “It's an amazing feeling to be part of the history of an old home,” Tamie glows. “We are its current stewards but there were many before us, and there will many after. It's humbling.” Tamie is quick to point out that despite its grandiose appearance on the outside, it is regular everyday home on the inside. ■

Behind the fantasy is the strength of an innovative and award-winning company. Concord Pools was the first to pioneer the use of radiant heat in swimming pools. A radiant heating system utilizes a modulating boiler and PEX tubing in the concrete floor of the pool. The result is an incredibly efficient source of heat for a swimming pool. Concord Pools was also one of the first companies to perfect construction techniques for negative edge vinyl-lined pools. Their patented I-Beam brace system is like no other brace in the industry and supports pool decking from settling and shifting.

This project was an entry in the Showcase of Homes last fall. This negative edge pool was cantilevered off the edge of an extreme slope. Over 450 tons of material was brought in to create the platform for this project. The resulting pool is a beautiful blend of natural stone, stamped concrete and natural elements with a breathtaking view.

saratogaTODAYnewspaper.com

Concord’s accomplishments have been featured in numerous industry and national publications and have received multiple national and regional awards. They were voted one of the “Top Three” pool companies in America by Pool and Spa News, they are a seven time recipient of the coveted Master of Design Award and were voted a lifetime member of the AQUA 100 Hall of Fame by AQUA Magazine. On a local level they also won first place in the Showcase of Homes in ‘12, ’13, ‘14, ‘15 and ’16.

The time is now to start building the backyard of your dreams.

This project boasts a spectacular outdoor space with a free-form pool design. A natural stone landscape custom slide with adjoining spillover spa are the focal point of this design. The large patio area is done in a premium paver including a natural stone fire pit.
