Links to some of our favorite organizations, restaurants, and information about local Hudson Valley attractions.


The Shaker Museum and Library - No longer open here in Old Chatham, but activities in nearby New Lebanon.

Columbia County Bounty - Information on local food and farms.

The Old Chatham Country Store - A great place for lunch if you are visiting the area, just a mile from the farm. And now open for candlelight dining Thursdays through Sundays. Reservations a must for dinner.

The Blue Plate Restaurant - One of our long time favorites for dinner (no lunch), in Chatham. About 6 miles.

DA|BA - A great place for dinner in Hudson, NY. About 30 minutes from the farm, but worth the drive.
