We are very proud to be embarking on the 20th season of the outdoor market and want to share this short film in commemoration of that and also our 5 consecutive years being named Best Farmers’ Market in the Hudson Valley.
We asked you, our customers, what you think makes the Rhinebeck Farmers' Market so special, and this video highlights your enthusiastic responses.
We think this video speaks to what's great about our community.
You'll likely see many of your friends and neighbors in it!
Take a peek here:

We are so thrilled to take the market back outside this week
and even more excited to kick off the Spring growing season.
Here's some of what we're looking forward to this Sunday:
 |
| Asparagus! Look for it at Taliaferro Farms, Wiltbank Farms & Migliorelli Farm. |
 |
| Ramps! Have you tried them? Here's a recipe to give them a go: Spring Ramp Orzotto with Goat Cheese Meg at Twin Ponds Nursery will have them. Get them while you can. They have a short season. |
 |
| Ray Tousey tells us he'll have Rhubarb. |
 |
| It wouldn't be Spring without a big mound of Radishes at Migliorelli Farm's booth! |
 |
| Taliaferro Farm will have Sorrel - a tender leafy green with a lemony flavor that is really nice when added to salads and pastas. |
 |
| Greens galore! Taliaferro will also have Spring Kale, Spinach, Arugula, Chives &Mesclun. |
 |
| Highland Farm will have fresh cuts of Venison & Smoked Venison. Also look for Wild Boar Bacon, Boar Ribs & Mouflan Lamb. |

 |
| Gorgeous Shiitake & Oyster Mushrooms from Wiltbank Farm |
 |
| The River Garden will have Lily of the Valley & Lilacs plus they have very generously donated hundreds of flower seedlings that we will be giving away to all Mothers who visit the market on Sunday in honor of Mother's Day. |
Greene Bee Greenhouse will join the market this year
for the month of May with seedlings. This Sunday they will have big, beautiful herbs, heirloom tomatoes, pepper plants & strawberry plants.
They'll also have gift certificates that you can give to Mom
so that she can come by and pick out some seedlings for her garden.
 |
| Lynnhaven will have their Chocolate Chevre Truffles which also makes a great gift for Mom. After this week, they won't make them again until Thanksgiving. So get out there and get them while you can. |
