Indoor farmers’ market in Palisades

February
5

The Palisades Community Center seems to have found the answer to the dearth of farmers’ markets in the winter. Starting this Saturday, the center will be hosting what may be Rockland’s first indoor farmers’ market. It will be held every Saturday from February to April, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., at the center, 675 Oak Tree Road. Familiar local vendors will be there, providing organic nuts and dried fruit from Tierra Farm of Valatie, chicken and eggs from Dines Farms of Oak Hill, and cheeses made from grass-fed cows from Bobolink Dairy of Vernon, N.J. Visit palisadesny.com for more information.

While novel for Rockland, such an idea has been done before. Here’s a photo of the Westchester County Center’s indoor farmers’ market, which started in 2007.
