Basilica Farm & Flea – part timeless flea and farmer’s market, part 21st century craft and design fair – is inspired by the abundance of passionate and talented farmers, collectors, and artisans in the Hudson Valley. 2016 marks the inaugural Spring Market, featuring a wide range of independent makers, collectors and farmers offering a variety of seasonally appropriate products, including spring and summer-specific apparel and ephemera. It promises to be a dynamic weekend of celebration and renewal – picture spring dresses, vintage garden sets, wild edibles and maybe even a maypole. And, of course, all things Mothers’ Day!

This Thanksgiving, the wildly successful Basilica Farm & Flea – the marketplace held at Basilica Hudson – returns on November 27 – 29! Created as an alternative to “Black Friday” culture, the annual market brings together a collection of quality products presented by a diverse group of about 125 regional makers, farmers, chefs and vintage collectors to promote the talents and resources within our community.
WOWEE, BASILICA FARM & FLEA 2014
Over 6,000 people celebrated with us THANKSGIVING WEEKEND! #FARMFLEAFUN #BFFHUDSON
A total magical success! Thank you to ALL who came, participated and supported. This was only our second year and we doubled in attendance! This promises to be one of our strongest annual events for years to come.
Basilica Farm & Flea aims to highlight the abundance of small, authentic businesses located within the Hudson Valley. We chose Thanksgiving Day weekend to provide an alternative to the Black Friday “Big Box” holiday shopping experience. Hudson is increasingly being recognized as a destination for quality food, art, antiques, vintage, and history enthusiasts. It’s about time we all come together and celebrate that!
