Fresh Farm Fun

We’re not just wine country, we’re farm country too! As you wander through our bucolic rolling hills and countryside roads lined with long-time owned family farms, make time to visit our local farm markets and roadside farm stands. You’ll find everything from locally grown fruits, vegetables, locally raised meat and eggs, homemade baked goods, artfully handcrafted art, plants, flowers, and so much more. From the first farm and craft market in Upstate New York to small roadside farm stands, immerse yourself in one of the most diversified agricultural areas of New York.

u-pick farms If you’re looking for a farm experience, visiting a u-pick destination will provide just that, plus you get to walk away with some delicious locally grown fruits or vegetables when they are in season. Our u-pick farms enable you to experience picking grapes off the vine, gathering a variety of apples from their orchards and choosing different sorts of berries to enjoy fresh from the patch they are grown. Picking your own also provides a fun family outdoor activity and a chance to see exactly where your food comes from!
