Farm to Table

A Farm-to-Table Day Trip to Taste the Best of the Hudson Valley

(Check out our deliciously good 3-hour GOURMET BEACON FOOD TOUR. Click here!)

A Hudson Valley Foodie Day Trip is the perfect escape — just 60 miles north of NYC, but a world away. Dig into flavorful, seasonal, small-batch food & drink from family operated farms. On this Farm-to-Table adventure you’ll visit beautiful farms, eat delicious food, drink hard cider made from NY state apples, meet adorable sheep and shop at country farmers markets. This is the essential food-lovers day-trip and a great way to explore the bounty of New York State agriculture. Check out the delicious tastings pictured below!

Indulge in local cheeses, olive oil & custom-designed donuts. Eat, drink, meet the farmers and explore as we tell the stories of this amazing region– from its roots as the birthplace of the environmental movement to its role as the breadbasket of NYC. Meet your guide in the historic river town of Beacon, NY. There, on the banks of the Hudson, we’ll share stories of the region. We’ll cross the mighty Hudson and head to farmland where we’ll dig in to flavorful farm fresh seasonal foods from family operated farms.

TIMING NOTE: This tour’s unique features include 1/2 walking tour & 1/2 mini-bus tour. And since we’re at the will of the country roads (and sometimes traffic) as well as our own desire to do a little shopping at farmers markets and country stores, we want to make sure you leave plenty of time at the end of the day and don’t book any other events too close to our end-time, just in case we experience a half-hour delay beyond our end-time. Be prepared for a delicious and filling day! We’ll bring everyone back to the Beacon Station (parking is free on weekends) so you can catch one of the train to NYC or get in your car for the trip home. Like to stay for the weekend?

The tour was the highlight of the trip! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable about the food and the history. He was so entertaining, and the food was FABULOUS! I was full halfway through, but couldn't stop eating, especially when we got to the cannoli!

I was hesitant to go on a food tour. I wasn't sure if it would be worth the time or money. I was WRONG. One of the best things I've done in NYC! Our guide was amazing and had so much knowledge! I will do another! WORTH EVERY PENNY.

I am not the tour type. I live in NYC and got this as a gift but was skeptical. I couldn't have been more wrong. What a great time! Not only does the guide entertain, she feeds you! We were treated like VIP’s everywhere. BEST GIFT EVER.
