Great options for my entire family for all meals of the day. Whether eating in the Cafe or getting take-out we're always happy with the service from the staff. My wife needs gluten free options and this is our favorite place in the area to reliably have great options.

As with all of Adam's, everything was top shelf. Good food and service.

The food was really good. We had a Yam Right! Wrap, mozzarella sandwich, and special of the day rasta pasta w/chicken. It's basically counter service, and then they bring it to your table. There is a full menu with a separate breakfast menu. Plenty of vegetarian options. Pricing is respectable. They also have a nice ice cream selection, which was very tempting.

Nice cafe with a good food selection.

Good place to get a good quick and inexpensive lunch. (They also have great ice cream.)

Great little sandwich and ice cream shop. Their food is pretty darn tasty. The yam roll sandwich is awesome with the tikka masala sauce. Excellent onion rings too.

Very good food. Friendly service.

Wonderful cafe that has been here for decades. Located in and outside of Adams farm stand, this cafe has delicious wraps, sandwhiches, ice cream and more! Great for an outdoor meal, snack after shopping, or a quick trip for some ice cream. Don't pass it up if you're in the area and looking for a quick ala carte meal and, or snack.

Produce is where it all began

You may have noticed that whichever Adams Store you enter—the main entrance leads you straight to produce. Every produce item leads you to a nutritious meal. Every member of our staff and the whole Adams family realizes that not only was our original farm stand built around our ability to provide the finest quality produce, but it’s also the centerpiece of our modern-day farm stand.

A wide variety of fresh produce:

Fruits: Apples, Pears, Lemons, Oranges, Grapes, Berries, Cherries, Bananas, Pineapple, Mangos, Kiwis, Watermelons, Nectarines, Peaches, Melons

Vegetables: Kale, Lettuce, Bagged Salads, Carrots, Potatoes, Onions, Garlic, Broccoli, Tomatoes, Peppers, Squash, Celery, Beans, Corn, Mushrooms, Avocados

Specialty Items: Organic Products, Herbs

Selecting perfect produce

Our customers want to be able to smell the freshness of the melons (press the stem end and you’ll notice the melon fragrance), or choose an avocado (remove the little stem, if it’s green, it’s getting ripe, if it’s black, it has gone too far) that will be ripe and ready when they need it. In season, the green beans bin gets filled up sometimes eight times a day, or more, because Adams customers know they’re fresh. Because of our farm history, you’ve got decades of experience on your plate.

With a farmer’s eye, the produce you see on display is chosen. You’re greeted by row after row of bins, benches, and coolers abundantly stocked with beautiful hand-selected fruits, berries, vegetables, herbs, greens, mushrooms, potatoes, squashes, root vegetables, peppers, tomatoes, and much more. Be sure to read the produce signs—most provide nutritional information and helpful tips. Our knowledgeable attendants are also on hand to answer any questions you may have. Whether you are looking for pomegranates or plantains, radicchio or romaine, you’ll find it at Adams Fairacre Farms.

Farmers are our friends

We value our partnerships with regional farmers who grow responsibly. When you shop at Adams, you support producers dedicated to bringing their best from the field to our markets. Learn their names and stories, as we regularly share them with our customers. Every bag and basket of produce from Adams comes with a little love and a lot of quality.

I purchased 19 trees and shrubs from Adams nursery over a two year period for my home. Adams has a large diverse selection from which to choose. The staff is knowledgeable and exhaust their efforts to satisfy and win the loyalty of their customers. When I had to return a shrub within the two year warranty the staff without hassle honored the warranty. I also purchased decorative rocks for my landscape and the two deliveries were accurate and delivered as scheduled.

I love this supermarket. The nursery is amazing, with an extremely knowledgeable staff. The selection of items is extensive and I can spend hours here.

Never disappointed with my shopping experience at Adams. Staff is always helpful . Especially love their plant nursery.

Purchased some plants that had the wrong tag on them. Contacted nursery manager Tim and he looked into issue with his suppliers. He then proceeded to work out the problem I had and took care of it. Excellent customer relations I am a regular customer there and will continue to be

The best grocer/nursery in the Hudson Valley. Highest recommendation for prepared foods, bakery, candy, groceries and any and all of your planting needs.

Maureen in floral went above and beyond helping me get last minute poinsettias to decorate a church for a wedding. The poinsettias were absolutely beautiful on the alter. I was very impressed with every employee I came in contact with in this store. They were all amazing!

OMG, what an AMAZING lady I worked with this morning!! Valerie was absolutely fantastic!! I live in Lincoln, NE and was trying to coordinate sending a plant to my son's girlfriend in memory of her mom who passed away from brain cancer a year ago. Valerie was SOOO helpful and kind. If you need assistance, this is the lady you want to enlist!! She's incredible!! Adams is VERY lucky to have her on their team!

Was there to pick up a plant.. I wasn't sure how to take care of it.. The garden person was most helpful.. I was lucky the garden show was going on.. Very Nice..

My husband and I visited on Saturday as we were on the hunt for a low-light pet-safe indoor plant for our parlor. The garden associate Lynn approached us and asked if we needed help. She went over and beyond in answering our questions and guiding us in our choices. We spent a considerable amount of time with her and she is a font of knowledge. We love all the Adam's and their staffs but she is exceptional. A master gardener!

Our organization needed to find some last minute decorations for our staff party. When we called and spoke with Alyssa she went above and beyond and got us the most beautiful Pointsettia plants for the tables. Our staff loved them they really made the space shine. Thank you so much Alyssa for being amazing!!

Shayne, the associate in the greenhouse, went above and beyond to help me. I was looking at a beautiful silver vase bromeliad. It was in a plain plastic container. I asked if she would be willing to repot it for me so I could give it as gift. She said "Absolutely! Pick a pot and I'll take care of it for you." I picked the new pot and she not only replanted it but she added a card with a description, two additional sticks to support the plant, and instructions on how to care for it. She was extremely helpful, attentive, and kind. I will return to Adams again just because of her.

My favorite part of this store is the greenhouse, especially in winter. Make sure you check out the little pond with the giant Koi fish!

Houseplant heaven! Their greenhouses are meticulously maintained, and their plants are always healthy. I’ve gotten indoor and outdoor plants from Adam’s, and they last forever. Their selection of rare and cool plants fluctuates, so you’ll find a different gem each time.

My kids and I also love the greenhouse filled with gorgeous reasonably priced plants and my kids especially love the pond with turtles and fish.
