SATURDAY: Westchester Sketchers at Hastings Farmers Market

 



The Hastings Farmers Market is Westchester's premier farmers' market with the most unique and eclectic blend of farmers and food artisans.  It is located in the commuter parking lot opposite the train station.  You’ll quickly find that its slogan is true, it is the most fun you’ll have in a parking lot. This isn’t any ordinary farmers’ market—you could spend hours here.  Peach and raspberry pies, farm-fresh produce, and goods from the Hudson Valley are only the beginning.  The  market also provides music and locally made ready-to-eat foods to take home or enjoy at the picnic tables overlooking the Hudson.



Need more inspiration? The Village of Hastings offers many other things to inspire your sketches -  a library, a train station, a quaint downtown with eclectic shops and restaurants, opportunities for people-watching, plus scenic river views.
