Half Moon Rondout Cafe & Adelaar Farm Market

Biweekly market Wednesdays and Sundays

Half Moon Rondout Café at 83 Broadway, best known all over the county for its babka, will soon be one of the only twice-a-week markets in the Hudson Valley. In its new space just up the street from its old location, it will be offering fresh pastries, sandwiches, locally roasted coffee and made-to-order hot donuts every day.

Half Moon and Adelaar Farms, a local family-owned-and-operated farm which utilizes all-organic practices to grow its produce and flowers, will collaborate to make use of Half Moon’s alleyway to distribute fresh produce and flowers. Blueberries, strawberries, lettuce, herbs, and dozens of flower varieties will be available throughout the summer. There will be potatoes and other vegetables in the fall. Seedlings, seed starter kits, herbs, and meal kits will also be available.

In addition the spacious new dining room with big windows, will hold monthly workshops and events like seed planting, bouquet arranging, flower pressing, natural dying, crocheted flowers, donut painting, and other crafts and activities.

Half Moon Rondout Café is very active on the social media. Go to Instagram at @halfmoonrondoutcafe & @adelaarfarms for weekly updates on produce availability. You can also find Adelaar Farms produce at Chleo, Camp Kingston, Blue Mountain Bistro-To-Go, Woodstock Meats, Sunflower Market and Davenport Farms.

PonckHockie Market

Last Saturday of every month

The PonckHockie Market, a community food co-op at 75 Lindsley Avenue, incorporates culture and community in a new grassroots market intended as a cornerstone for community development and engagement. The first market in May celebrated Native-American, Haitian-American, and Jewish-American heritages, with vendors offering a wide range of food, Programming including a doctor and a chef, and produce like local eggs, local chicken, apples, greens, pork chops, ribs, beets, and more.

“The PonckHockie Market is not just a grocery store, It’s a community revolution, born from the need for accessible, healthy food in Ponckhockie, a neighborhood in Kingston recognized as a food desert,” according to the founders.

The market sets prices based on what customers can afford, and all profits made go back to local nonprofits chosen by the market’s members. Created by Community Action of Ulster County and Thrive On! Network and supported by food from The Farm Hub, the market features a new curation of local flavors and cultures each month.

A community block party is scheduled for noon on June 29.

Red Owl Flea Market

First Sunday of the month

Over 70 vintage sellers, local makers, antique dealers, pickers, collectors, and food vendors gather in the Red Owl parking lot in Midtown Kingston each month until October. Make a day of stopping at 25 Cornell Street in some of the many new vintage and thrift shops, restaurants, bakeries, and breweries surrounding the antiques mall. It’s open from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., Thursday through Monday.

The lofty mission of the location is “to provide an organized, beautiful and dynamic environment to sell antiques, vintage, design; to provide the best customer service to our vendors and customers.”

The 10,000-square-foot space, once a bowling alley, then a warehouse, after that for many years the iconic home of Wonderly’s window treatment business (with its distinctive minimalist sign lettering), is now the location of the Red Owl Collective (notice how all six of the letters in the Red Owl are the same six in the name Wonderly). 

A couple of elsewheres

Oh Boy Market Fare in Andes

Outdoor summer market on July 6 and 7 featuring 20+ artists, musicians, makers, retailers, food and drinks from the Catskill area. With no admission fee, this market is worth the scenic drive.

Cirque de Creep Market in Beacon

Thus new alternative night market on June 28 will feature dark art, oddities, tarot, reiki, taxidermy, crystals and vintage. Admission is free. The Yard in Beacon will host dozens of vendors offering their most creepy selections.
