About this Event
Welcome to Knit & Sip at Branchwater Farms! On the eve of the Rhinebeck Sheep & Wool Festival, gather with friends and fellow fiber enthusiasts to relax, create, sip and snack - all against a backdrop of natural beauty. Branchwater is a farm distillery just minutes from the Dutchess Fairgrounds. We grow wheat and rye in our organic fields for the gins and whiskeys we produce at our on-site distillery, and we work with New York State fruit growers to craft brandies in the classic European dry style known as eau de vie. We recently launched our Fridays at the Farm series, complete with beverage and food service. We offer specialty cocktails featuring Branchwater spirits as well as beer, wine and cider from New York producers, in addition to non-alcoholic wines and beverages. And we have specialty food boards ranging from a selection of local cheeses and charcuterie to tinned seafood and even caviar service if you’re feeling fancy.
Sit around the fire pit while savoring a craft cocktail made from spirits grown in the surrounding fields. Enjoy one of our specialty food boards while watching our flock of ducks take their evening stroll. Shop our farm store and stock up on provisions and gifts from local farms and artisans. Explore the farm at your leisure, drawing inspiration for your next creative project from the colors of the season.
Very special guest Martha Belardo of Hudson Valley Fiber Arts will be joining us for the evening, with a wonderland of her sometimes whimsical, always astonishing felted creations, which will be available for purchase. (@hudsonvalleyfiberarts)
