Taste of Rhinebeck

We had a great time at the Taste of Rhinebeck last night. The weather was perfect for strolling the streets and nibbling on tasty morsels. It was wonderful to see everyone out and about enjoying springtime in Rhinebeck. We saw many familiar faces and made new friends as well and we had a chance to remind everyone that we’ll be open again in just a few short weeks on Mother’s Day, May 9th.
