TaSH Kicks Off Its 7th Summer Farmers Market

TARRYTOWN, NY — The seventh summer season of the Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow Farmers Market — The TaSH — will feature more than 60 vendors.

The new season begins at 8:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. Saturday in Patriots Park, organizers said.

There will be more weekly and rotating vendors than ever before, including more prepared food options to take away or enjoy on-site, plenty of locally grown seasonal produce, a greater variety of baked goods and more.

TaSH Co-founder and Co-President Tammy Abraham Bordeaux said everyone was excited to launch the seventh summer season after a successful inaugural winter market.

"As the COVID crisis begins to subside in New York, The TaSH is delighted to bring back kids activities, our loyal shopper rewards program and community tables, while still prioritizing the safety of our shoppers, vendors and staff," she said.

The weekly vendor list included familiar TaSH regulars selling vegetables, fruit, meats, seafood, cheese, bread, eggs, pickles, coffee, cider, spirits and pantry staples.

Organizers said there will be plenty of prepared food items for picnics and Memorial Day barbecues including vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options.

New vendors joining throughout the season include Charlotte’s Home Kitchen, Hudson Valley Fisheries, The Cookie Crumbles Bakeshop, Lather Rise Repeat, A Tart’s Tart, Freshly Made, Clarkson Avenue Crumb Cake Company, There’s No Place Like Om and For the Love of Toffee.

While the state has lifted its mask mandate for many areas, organizers of the market are asking shoppers and vendors to continue wearing masks in the market. Signs will direct where to line up for individual vendor booths.

Masks can be removed when seated away from market traffic in designated picnic areas.

The TaSH will continue to review guidelines and recommendations from the state Department of Agriculture and Markets and the NY Farmers Market Federation.

In addition to accepting SNAP/BET benefits, TaSH doubles their value. Customers who swipe their EBT card for $20 get $40 to spend at the market. WIC checks are also accept.

Patriots Park is on Route 9 on the border of Sleepy Hollow and Tarrytown. There is free parking at John Paulding School across the street.
