What if you created a lovely new farm stand, right by your farm, and then, three days into summer, the bridge that brought your customers to you was closed for repairs?
Sadly, that's exactly what's happening to Common Hands Farm. The bridge on Route 23B over Claverack Creek, which connects Hudson to the farm, is closing tomorrow for repairs and is expected to stay closed until Labor Day. But the good news is that Common Hands Farm is moving its farm stand to our side of the bridge, just before the detour, across from the turnoff onto Spook Rock Road.
The farm stand is open at its new location every Friday from 4 to 7 p.m. and on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
I visited their stall at the just-opened Sunday Philmont Farmers' Market this morning- they'll be there every week. The Philmont market is a good addition to the network of local farmers' markets.
