If you are a tourist and are a little overwhelmed by all the different farms, vineyards, and…read morerestaurants in the area and are unsure where to start, Check this place out!!!
They sell groceries, cheeses, meats, snacks, bread, coffee, and awesome swag, all from local farms, and restaurants, and businesses in the area.
Plus the owners are at cash register with their little baby, happy to help guide you to their favorites. They grew up in Burdett and can give some great advice on where the cool hangout spots are.
This is also the spot if you want to have an evening in or pack a picnic to take to the lake stuffed with amazing goodness from the local farms
I am a "Part-time" local and today was my first day popping in. I wanted to stay in tonight but still have a delicious local meal.
I bought a bag of Polenta from Farmer Ground. (Trumansburg) Chèvre garlic and pepper from Lively run goat dairy. (Interlaken) Chilled Mediterranean quinoa salad (Stonecat Cafe in Hector NY) and frozen Garlic bratwurst (packed by Timberland Meats (Dundee) farm fresh asparagus, and chocolate milk from (Sunset view creamery)
They have great shaded parking, and I was able to pull in on a nice windy day and leave my dog in the car with the windows down.
I ran into a couple of other locals that I knew and struck up a pleasant conversation. They have picnic table out front, so you can buy your farmdelicious foods and eat them out side and enjoy the day.
Locals and tourists alike, we're hanging out at the picnic tables, having fun. Their decor is so cute. Perfect country store vibe, with a granola and wine twist.
It's nice to see a small family business connecting locals farms and community through the food they carry.
Today was an extra bonus day, because Nickels BBQ food truck was parked in lot, their BB sauce is also sold inside Burdett exchange, if you want your own bottled sauce.
After I cashed out with ny groceries. I popped over to them for a brisket sandwich, coleslaw, and fries. If you're lucky enough to see them there when you pop over, highly recommend giving them a try, delicious and I will review them separately.
This place is downtown burdett 3 simple streets from Route 414 and is a must try, and grab some gifts for your friends while you're there.
Now my biggest decision today is what wine to pair with my dinner in tonight. Lol
