Maker’s Monday at the Dudley Farm

 Crafters are invited to join the ladies from the Dudley Farm gift shop for fun and fellowship Monday afternoons from 1 to 3 pm downstairs at the yellow Munger Barn. Bring your work-in-progress projects and craft in community as we share expertise, advice, and laughter working in centuries-old techniques: sewing, quilting, knitting, basket weaving, hooking, spinning, whatever! Donations appreciated. For more information, contact Mary Norris, 203-415-0426. 

Farmers Market

 

June 7 through Oct

Saturday’s 9-12:30

We have breakfast and lunch being made fresh to order.  We have all manner of produce all day long.  We have decadent cakes, cookies and even fresh made smoothies and green drinks.  Flowers galore and honey – Yes, we have local honey available.  Pasta that is out of this world and truly fresh handmade from locally sourced goods.  Did I mention cheeses that are totally off the scale fantastic?  Hot coffee and rumor has it that there will be cold brew coffee this weekend.  Olive oil, jams, and maple syrup from just up the road.  House plants in sizes for a coffee table or the back deck, soap made from award winning goats and their milk.  The best canvas shopping bag that I’ve ever had the pleasure to use, will carry your food and so much more (only $10 with all proceeds going to the Dudley Foundation). Jewelry to compliment your dining outfit and even a spoon or fork to eat with.  You can pick up cool painted rocks to keep your napkins from blowing away.  Skin care products to keep you beautiful and handsome.   Fiber arts to wear, keep you warm, keep you safe (masks), dry your dishes and put your plates on.  Bread, oh my God bread, of the sourdough variety.  Did I mention pie? Cakes?  Biscotti?  Do you need a cool bird or bat house?  We’ve got those too.  Every bag of kettle corn comes with a great story.
