They do sell apples (and much more) in the store. I tried the Margherita pizza, 3 mushroom white, and sausage special (housemade bratwurst). Pizzas were excellent. Brat was tasty but pretty small portion for the price (one link cut in half and some cornbread). Also got some of the cider doughnuts, which were good, but wish they were hot. You can get hot ones a few miles away at Jenkins-Lucien. Fresh cider was amazing!

Last year, they had the BEST warm apple cider donuts - and their hot apple cider was the real deal, not that watered-down stuff you get everywhere else. It was the perfect combo for a chilly autumn day. I was really looking forward to making Dressells Farm a regular weekday stop this fall for that specific treat, but it's a shame they only offer it on weekends. Hopefully, they'll consider offering the hot cider and fresh donuts every day next year so more people can enjoy them!

It was very crowded, it could've been the beautiful weather for the end of October. The fall foliage really added to the experience. Picked up a couple of things; apple cider, apple cider donuts, apple butter. Paid cash; but they have no way to give you a receipt or email one to you. They don't accept Apple Pay. It's a little confusing in the shop; there's one long line and only two cashiers. There's the usual hayrides and activities for children. They could use more parking. The crushed gravel is difficult to navigate for someone who has mobility issues.

A nice chunk of my 22 years living in White Plains, was spent buying produce for juicing and…read morecooking at my fave market in Hartsdale. Now that we're living in The Catskills, my quest to find that similar market prototype I grew to love in Westchester, continues. I had forgotten hubs and I came here before during one of our bi-annual trips to The Catskills. Recently though, when I searched for produce markets near work in Highland, Wallkill View in New Paltz popped up within a short driving distance. As you drive past all of New Paltz bustling shops and restaurants on Main St, you'll soon approach a sleepy farmland area overlooking Mohonk Preserve in about 5 or so minutes. I've been hard-pressed to find a market that tops my favorite one in Westchester and checks all the boxes. Wallkill View grows and sells a nice mix of produce the area has to offer. And when veggies and fruit aren't grown on-site or in season, they're sourced from elsewhere. Unlike other farm markets that operate only Sat+Sun, Wallkill V. is open everyday. Well...almost. These folks shut down for Christmas and throughout the winter- reopening in March. Prices are about $1 more than what I paid down in White Plains- but hey... I get it. Service is great though.

Great spot for apple picking. The small bag was a little expensive but a decent size. We got Fujis,…read moreCameos, JonaGold and Wine Saps. They're all delicious! Crisp and sweet, the Winesaps had a little tartness but still great. We picked up some goards and little pumpkins too. They're priced pretty well and have a good variety. The best pumpkins are picked in the patch, for $2 each. We got some heirloom tomatoes and some cider donuts to take home. The donuts need to be heated up for 20 seconds in the microwave, but they're very good. Why they didn't get 5-stars: The labels could use some work around the orchard. I always find it frustrating when orchards don't label the paths. They give you a map, but it's not very accurate.

One of the best pick your own apple farms I've been to. Everything was so organized and it wasn't…read moretoo crowded. The parking lot overflows into the hs parking lot but there's someone directing traffic. They've got portable toilets which were actually clean. They had two food trucks which had an assortment of flatbreads, hotdogs, and fries. Bad seed had a table serving up their own cider and some local cider. The pricing was affordable with a pint for $6. The docs Pumpkin cider was so good. The apple picking was further in and there was signage directing you to the area. They have 3 different sized bags ranging from $25-$42. We opted for the middle size $35 to fill 20-24lbs of apples. The $42 tote was for the same amount of apples but you paid extra money for the tote. If you brought the tote back to reuse you get $1 off next time. They offer these tools to pick the apples that are high up in the trees for $5. They gave us a map and was told there were tractor stops throughout. If our bags got too heavy we can leave it there and they will transport it back for us. Each bag had a ticket stub so we keep one and can pick it up after. This was the first time I saw something like this done for apple picking. We started all the way in the back and they had a ton of apples. The hike up was very steep though but the views were amazing. The shop sold Apple cider donuts which were freshly made. They also sold an assortment of apple cider with the different apple varieties. The honey crisp apple cider was my fav.

What a great place to explore. The little shop has a whole wall of hard cider. Unfortunately, the…read morefew we bought were not to our palette, but I'm sure I could come back and find another type we'd like. There's also a full display of baked goods and of course lots and lots of apples. There's a little area you can sit to enjoy some coffee, too. Right by the parking lot are many places to sit and eat. A little hut, which was closed when we stopped by, also serves pizza during dinner time, and they have occasional music events. Be sure to walk or drive around the bend, as well, where there's a tasting room, cute little garden, area with llamas and fowl, and at the time, a large pumpkin patch with lots of different pumpkins. (We couldn't tell if the pumpkins were a display or for sale.)

But for Lydia L's great review of the Rosendale Market we would have missed this gem on our recent…read moretrip to the Hudson River Valley. Just another example of the fine things one can get themselves into through reading Lydia L's reviews! Because this was a fine market to visit on a fine October day. Although we've consumed lots (LOTS) of wine, we've never tried mead and with Lydia's review to back us up, we tried some and bought some too. (Which would be enjoyed later on in the day with cheese from Dancing Ewe and seckel pears from Migliorelli's, both of the Rhinebeck Market.) Don't pass up the chewy, delightful pretzel rolls! We bought several to give to our friends in NJ and they were a BIG hit. (Seasonal cranberry / apple and also sea salt. Also found at the New Paltz market.) There were fewer farmers at this market on this October Sunday but the produce vendors there had top quality items. And the friendly woman at the info booth at the end of the market was offering samples of home baked apple crisp as well as tastings of local applies. More to love about the Rosendale Market...ample parking. Yahoo! Were we HRV residents it would be a regular stop for us.
