Fishkill Farms

May is a busy month on the farm! We’re hard at work planting vegetables and flowers as soil temperatures slowly creep up and taking care of our orchard as the trees, brambles and bushes fully leaf out. It also means our events schedule is filling up, and some important dates signaling the start of the summer season on the farm are just around the corner, like our 🛍 Farm Store returning to full-time hours of Tuesday-Sunday 9 am-6 pm and our Treasury Cider Bar opening on Thursdays 12 pm-7 pm. You’ll find some new events on the schedule, including our 🍝 Open Mic & Pasta Night with @groundup_foodtruck on May 22nd and a 🎨 painting class with @a_life_in_art on May 30th. We hope you’ll come visit us and enjoy all this beautiful month on the farm has to offer. Our sheep are waiting to welcome you!🌤🐑🌿🥂

We were initially on track for a typical bloom season, with blossoms expected at the time of the festival. However, the stretch of unseasonably warm weather we experienced in mid-April accelerated the timeline and encouraged many of the blossoms to open much earlier than anticipated. While we do our best to predict bloom timing each year, weather patterns can shift things quickly, and nature tends to have the final say. We will be past peak bloom by the date of the event, but it will still be a beautiful time to take in the green spring scenery and enjoy a peaceful wagon ride!

“Crop loss, when it happens suddenly, feels like violence,” says Andy Brennan of Aaron Burr Cider, of last week’s late frost event. Between midnight and sunrise on April 21, temperatures across the Hudson Valley plummeted as low as 19°F in some places, as growers raced to implement measures ranging from primitive to cutting edge. Some lit fires, some hired drones, others helicopters. It’s too early to tell the extent of the damage to delicate blossoms and buds, and ensuing crop loss, but no matter the degree, it will be a financially challenging year for cidermakers, wineries, and fruit farms in the region.
