BASILICA FARM & FLEA
Born Thanksgiving Weekend 2013 as the Anti-Black Friday big sister goddess, Basilica Farm & Flea is part timeless flea market, part farmer’s market, part 21st century craft and design fair. Each market features a diverse group of regional vendors selling their handmade & collected wares alongside locally-sourced, farm-fresh foods. With over 10,000 square feet of raw space that has been historically and sustainably renovated, Basilica Farm & Flea is the only market of this scale in the region, and is an integral part of Basilica Hudson’s arts and cultural programs.
Seasonal Concept : In the Hudson Valley we live by the seasons, our agricultural activities reflect this and so do our community gathering styles. In this spirit, each market will be unique to the season, hosting different types of regional vendors with their singular wares and cultural programming. For Spring Market think Mother’s Day , planting gardens , spring *green* cleaning products, home improvement & signing up for your summer CSA shares! For Summer Market think popsicles , sunglasses , handmade summer dresses , farm veggie bounty and juicy cocktails. For Holiday Market, which is the cornerstone of our annual BFF marketplaces, think harvest, wool layers , warm drinks and anti big box black friday gift giving.
See you there!
