RAE’S 814 Main Street, Margaretville @raesmargaretville RAE’S has a rotating, seasonal menu of modern and playful takes on classic dishes, featuring local products, things we crave, and a dose of nostalgia. With nods to Jewish comfort food, Tex-Mex flavors, and steakhouse classics — along with classic house cocktails, natural wine, local beer, and flowing Dr. Brown’s Cel-Ray — RAE’S offers a warm, intimate, and charming space to gather, hang out, and eat well. Opened by veteran chef James Bailey and cultural producer Alexandra Rosenberg, RAE’S is named after Alexandra’s great-grandmother, who summered in Upstate NY — and insisted that you eat!

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped make our annual holiday market such a wonderful success! To all the local vendors who showcased their exceptional handmade products, and to all the guests who came out to support local businesses and celebrate community—thank you. Many of you traveled a considerable distance to join us in the small hamlet of Otego, and we are truly grateful. Every year we say, “This was our most successful event to date,” and once again, this year was no exception. It was a truly joyful evening and made even better by all of you. A special thank you to Jason Martin for capturing the spirit of our community with such beautiful photographs. @windward.land @omnoculus @tinkertownprovisions @lucindaeden @hudsonmadeny @kevincronin88 @kings_375main @bluefarmphil @woodland_pottery @oakhill_ny @traciemartinetti @uncommonkincidery

Argosy Designs Treadwell @argosydesigns [email protected] Argosy Designs is a design and fabrication company specializing in custom metalwork, with a reputation that rests as much on their artistry as on their technical mastery. Perhaps best known for their striking staircases — sculptural and functional — they also have a product division that includes lighting, furniture, and finely crafted objects. The company operates out of a state-of-the-art metal shop housed in a former dairy barn, a setting that mirrors their ethos of combining tradition with innovation. From this rural workshop, Argosy Designs collaborates with internationally renowned architects and global brands on projects that stretch from New York City across the US to Europe, Asia, and beyond, while still happily taking on projects for neighbors closer to home. Their clients may include the most demanding names in Manhattan, but they are equally keen on solving smaller design challenges for their local community. Founder Erik Johnson — whose background is in painting — draws from an unusually broad range of influences: “Classical music and rock ’n’ roll,” he says, “and painters of the late 19th century and early modern era.” His partner in both life and business, Jen Johnson-Kuhn, can’t resist adding: “And old military equipment!” The remark lands with smiles, but it rings true. There’s a rigor in Erik’s work that echoes utilitarian design. Precision, efficiency, and durability guide everything he creates.

Bakers Grimm 116 Main Street, Delhi @bakersgrimm From sweet treats to savory loaves, everything at Bakers Grimm is made on the premises. Be sure to check out their daily lunch specials as well. Photos: Jason Martin @windward.land From the first loaves sold at farmers’ markets in 2019 to the opening of their storefront on Main Street in Delhi in April 2024, Bakers Grimm has become a cornerstone of the community. From 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. every weekday, you can walk into the bakery and expect to find fresh bread, bagels, and pastries, as well as a rotating menu of affordable lunch options, such as the “Good Bowl”: a made-to-order salad with a wide array of fresh ingredients to choose from. Their $5 daily specials include a choice of soup, fresh focaccia, or a “Euro sandwich” — a small, chewy, and extremely delicious sandwich that wouldn’t be out of place at a sidewalk café in Italy or Germany.
