Hudson Farmers Market
In the winter/early spring of 1997, Milt Meisner and Norman Posner sat around a table and put together a plan to create the Hudson Farmers Market. By summer of that year, the market opened in the 6th Street municipal parking lot with 5 vendors. Since that time the market has grown and been sustained even more by the community, the City of Hudson and Columbia County. This location now comes alive every Saturday from May until Thanksgiving with over 30 vendors, community booths, musicians, volunteers, and neighbors.

Hudson’s Shopping Strip: Warren Street
“Everyone has their favorite stops. Here are a few of mine: Galerie Gris – An intriguing range of contemporary art bound with a singular curatorial vision—love the bent for colorful abstraction from artists including Lisa Corinne Davis, Marina Abrams, Robert Cronin, Lizzie Scott and many more. Behida Dolic – I am saving up for one of her broad-brimmed straw hats. Obsessed! Hawkins NY – Modernism with a human touch. And, when one can’t resist browsing the kind of great stuff Hudson’s known for—who can?—we go for vintage at Gris Antiques, Stair Galleries and Sutter Antiques.”
