Farmers Choice Sponsored the 2026 New Paltz Fireworks
The 2026 New Paltz Fireworks Celebration lit up the sky over our hometown this July 4th, and Farmers Choice was proud to be a sponsor. If you were on a blanket somewhere in the crowd, you already know: it was the kind of night this valley does best. Neighbors, visitors, kids on shoulders, and a show overhead that made the whole village look up at once.
A hometown night
New Paltz knows how to throw a Fourth. The 2026 New Paltz Fireworks Celebration brought the community together the way only a small-town fireworks night can, and the team at Local at Heart deserves real credit for making it happen. From all of us at the farm stand: thank you to the organizers, the volunteers, and every neighbor who came out.
Why we put our name on it
Farmers Choice is a Hudson Valley business first. Our New Paltz farm stand sits at the edge of a village that has welcomed us like a neighbor, and sponsoring the fireworks is one small way of saying it back. Cannabis dispensary like no other. That line is on our wall because it is the plan, and nights like the Fourth are what it looks like in practice.
Keep the summer going
The fireworks may be over, but the New Paltz summer is just warming up. A few of our favorite ways to spend the rest of it:
- Take a slow afternoon at Twin Star Orchards, the cidery and orchard around the corner from our farm stand, where the pizza oven and the live music carry the season.
- Walk or ride the Wallkill Valley Rail Trail, 22 flat, car-free miles through farm country, with the Rosendale Trestle waiting up the line.
- Make the classic loop through the Gunks, then cool down in the village with a cone from Main Street.
However you spend it, we hope your summer has a few more nights that feel like the Fourth did.

Making a night of it in New Paltz
Village nights like this one are the reason the barn keeps late hours. Farmers Choice New Paltz sits at 1 Old Route 299, right where Route 299 meets Thruway Exit 18, which puts it about two minutes off the highway and a few minutes from Water Street Market and the rail trail. The store is open 8AM to 10PM every day of the week, with about 35 parking spots on site and EV charging if the car needs it while you browse.
If you are coming in from out of town for an event, ordering ahead is the easy move. Browse the New Paltz menu, place the order, and pay at the counter when you collect it. Most orders are ready inside an hour, and a Farm Hand will have it bagged and waiting. Bring a valid government-issued photo ID showing you are 21 or older, every visit, no medical card needed. Everything leaves the counter sealed, and New York asks that it stay that way until you are home.
Where else we turn up
Farmers Choice runs two farm stands, this one in New Paltz and the original in Fishkill at 18 Westage Drive in Dutchess County. Between them we cover most of the mid-Hudson Valley, and we try to show up for the towns around both. If your local event should be on our radar, tell a Farm Hand at either counter or send us a note. Cannabis dispensary like no other.
