Hammertown - Pine Plains, Rhinebeck, Great Barrington

At Hammertown we believe everyone should
"love where they live"




During last week's Working Landscapes Tour, once again, I realized
how lucky we are to live in such a beautiful landscape with such committed and generous neighbors.  Although it was raining off and on for a good portion of the day, everyone had a wonderful time.  If you missed this year's tour, make sure you sign up on Ancram Preservation Group's website so you'll be sure to make it next year!

THIS WEEK'S RECIPE: Salade Niçoise

I thought it only appropriate to include one of Julia Child's recipes this week. In researching a recipe to include, I realized some of my favorite and most used recipes of Julia's are more for fall and winter meals, not for a hot summer day.  But here's one I found that I'm going to make right now!

OIL PAINTINGS BY SUSAN ROTH

Our customers have responded so strongly to Susan's work.  In just two weeks time we have sold over 4 of her paintings.  They are contemporary, evocative, and the prices are approachable for the beginning collector.  I love them!!  (Especially this one entitled Poole Hill Vista as I drive Poole Hill Road everyday on my way to work.)

"NO FARMS NO FOOD" BUMPER STICKERS NOW FREE AT THE BARN

Some of our customers have noticed the "No Farms No Food" bumper stickers on many of my employees' cars (as well as my own) and have asked about where to get them.  Now you can get them right here at Hammertown Barn.  American Farmland Trust supplied us with these bumper stickers for the "price" of your email address.  Take a bumper sticker, write down your email address and we'll take care of the rest.  Read more here...
