NYS Agriculture Commissioner Richard A. Ball, State Senator Michelle Hinchey, and partners from the State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation, The Olana Partnership, and the New York State Bridge Authority will celebrate local food, beverages, and art in the region at Olana State Historic Site on Saturday, September 16, from 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm.
The event is part of a series of celebrations across New York State to mark the 10th anniversary of Taste NY, New York's flagship "eat local, drink local" program. Taste NY highlights the quality and diversity of food and beverages grown and made in New York.
At Olana State Historic Site, visitors will have the opportunity to sample products from local farmers and food and beverage producers whose products are available at the Olana Museum Store, presented by The Olana Partnership. These producers include:
• CurrantC
• Fox Farm
• Silda's Jam
• Wicked Finch
The celebration will also take place in conjunction with the annual Skywalk Arts Festival, presented by Historic Bridges of the Hudson Valley in partnership with the New York State Bridge Authority. Taste NY will have a booth at the festival promoting New York producers.
The speaking program will begin at 12:00 pm, followed by food and beverage samples.
This event is a great opportunity to learn more about Taste NY and to support local farmers and food and beverage producers. It is also a chance to enjoy the beautiful scenery and historic architecture of Olana State Historic Site.
