    What an amazing Saturday find for us tourists! As we left our vacation in Lake George, we headed to…read morethe Farmers' Market for coffee and breakfast. The market did not disappoint! It was the last day of the season for the market to be outside (October) and we found delightful jellies, breakfast sandwiches/burritos, fresh milk (drank and returned the glass bottle on site), boutique cheeses, and freshly made crepes (savory and sweet available). $2 locally-roasted coffee? Yes, please! While we didn't buy any groceries, there were plenty of local farm fresh vegetables, eggs, and meats available, in addition to whole and ground coffee beans, breads, and other goods. So glad we made our way here!

    While visiting the Glen Falls area we took one morning to stop by the local farmers market. Online…read moreit shared that there was an outdoor and indoor area, perhaps COVID19 cancelled the indoor portion, but it was not happening and there was no way to know until you walked several blocks to find out. As for the outdoor portion, there was a wide array of vendors and the prices were very reasonable. The non-farmer vendors offered great products like soaps, oils, baked goods and cooked to order crepes, which were delicious. If we lived in the area, we would likely be there every week. *Our visit was during COVID19, the Farmers Market offered and supported good protocols as did each vendor.

    One of my favorite places for a yearly fall family tradition! Apple season means apple picking,…read moreapple cider donuts, hard cider & fun for the entire gang. Feeding & visiting the goats is always a hit for the kids. Depending on when you go, you can sometimes expect a bounce house, pony rides, food vendors, live music etc. The donut line can get absurdly long but it's never too long of a wait for those local-favorite cider donuts! The donuts are always fresh & warm & otherworldly delicious. The barn also offers many local treats, apple cider, fresh eggs & veggies, fudge, honey, handmade products & so much more. Look up to see the train hanging from the ceiling! Slyboro Ciderhouse is usually serving hard cider, beer on tap, cocktails etc.

    SERVICE-DOG DISCRIMINATION…read more I arrived with my trained service dog. Don, the parking attendant, told me my service dog could not leave my vehicle, claiming federal food-safety laws prohibited it. I explained that my dog is a service animal and that the ADA specifically addresses this issue that service dogs are exempt. I was directed to management. I spoke with Kim, the Cider House manager, and directed her to the U.S. Department of Justice ADA website, including the information explaining that food-safety rules do not provide a blanket exception to exclude service animals. They were given the federal guidance. They chose to ignore it. She contacted the owner. The owner's "solution" was that I could drive my car into the orchard..but my service dog had to remain inside the car not with me My service dog is necessary to mitigate my disability. A service dog locked inside a vehicle cannot perform those disability-related functions for me while I am outside the vehicle. That is not equal access. I told them directly that I believed I was being discriminated against. I told them I had three witnesses and that I would be filing a federal discrimination complaint. Their response? They were comfortable with that .....and believed they had done nothing wrong. What happened was humiliating and deeply upsetting. I went to Hicks Orchard expecting to participate like everyone else. Instead, I was singled out because of my disability and told that the service animal I rely on could not accompany me. A service animal sitting in a car cannot mitigate a disability. Equal access means being able to use the service animal I rely on...not being told I am not allowed to use assistance to mitigate my disability. We have been a team for over 6 years and travel alot internationally. We are well versed in these experiences and try to politely educate others. When we encounter people who aren't fully aware of service dog access rights, we are typically met with understanding once we show them ADA laws. Hicks refused to even consider they may misunderstand federal laws. I hope they will become more educated on ADA public access rights for service dogs to avoid excluding those with disabilities and the impact it has on their life's. We unfortunately left and will not return. our family has been visiting Hicks for years as a family tradition. our family and service dog was welcomed with open arms down the road at McWhorter's Orchard and had a great time there instead. we will continue our family tradition there moving forward.

    We purchased multiple items from Brown's Orchard and Farmstand yesterday and the people there were…read morevery friendly and helpful. We bought bags of apples, multiple pumpkins and a pie. I was able to sample their apple cider and it was very good. I meant to purchase a gallon of that as well but forgot. It was tasty and flavorful without being too sweet. We made pumpkin seeds from the pumpkins last night and they were very good. Even though the pumpkins weren't that large, they had lots of seeds! We also had some apples and they were crisp and juicy. I made the pie as well. The gentleman told us that the pie came cooked and ready to eat, but the crust was a little white for us and we prefer warm pie anyway, so I put it in the oven for about 20 minutes and served it up. The pie and the crust were both good and I definitely would have given browns five stars, had I not literally almost choked on a piece of plastic in my pie. (See photo) It got caught in the back of my throat and I had to pull it out with my finger. I was unable to finish my piece because of that experience, but no one else had any issue and everyone enjoyed the pie. I understand accidents happen but it was unfortunate. I would still return for for fruits and vegetables and maybe to get that cider I forgot, but I probably wouldn't buy another pie from them.

    I asked if the donuts were fresh and the woman said yes. When we opened the bag at home the donuts…read morewere far from fresh and very stale. The whoopie pie was also disappointingly stale. We won't be back.
