In partnership with Climate Smart Town of Poughkeepsie, this event is designed to bring people together while supporting the network of local businesses and food providers that sustains our community and makes our town a wonderful place to live. We invite you to participate in any of the following ways—all available first-come, first-served until space runs out:

- Try out the farmer’s market by participating on this one occasion, for $25, to sell your products to the community

- Reserve a half-table in the “big tent” to share information about your business (no sales in the tent, but you are welcome to bring discount coupons, activities, giveaways and information about your business)

- For restaurants and food providers: Bring a pop-up tent and offer mini free or $1 samples along with menus and ordering information.

As part of your participation, we invite you to highlight any environmentally conscious practices your business or restaurant employs, such as sourcing local ingredients, minimizing packaging waste, using eco-friendly materials, or making your operation energy-efficient. Your involvement will not only help strengthen community connections but also showcase the important role local businesses play in building a more sustainable future.

If you are interested in reserving a table or would like additional information, please email [email protected] or call 845-485-3607 by June 15.
