Don't worry about what to put on the table: here at Adams Fairacre Farms you'll find it all from flowers to food. What began as a small roadside stand at the turn of the 20th century has now blossomed into a farm market carrying an eye-popping variety of produce, meats, sweets, gifts, sundries, plants and even power tools. Buy or just browse, sip a sample of coffee or nibble on a goodie from the sweet shop, this is a great spot to while away the hours.

Convenient location right off interstates 84 and 87 makes this largest shopping center in Dutchess County a destination for when the shopping bug bites. And don't forget the added perk of shopping here: it offers completely tax-free shopping on all clothing and footwear up to $110. Since NY sales tax is 8.25% that adds up to big savings! Anchors Target, Sears, Best Buy and Penney's are great for the bargain hunter and stores such as H&M guarantee the latest trends at a fraction of the cost of designer brands.

Most shops are open Tue-Sun from 11am to 5pm, but call ahead to avoid disappointment.
