The holiday craft season is heating up. This weekend, 65 vendors will flock to the Hudson Valley Hullabaloo in Kingston, and more will appear at markets and bazaars in three other counties. Here's where to shop local for the holidays during the weekend of Nov. 21 and 22.

DELAWARE COUNTY

Fresh-baked pies, locally-raised meats, Catskills-made spirits and wines and much more will be for sale at the Greater Stamford Area Chamber of Commerce (GSACC) Holiday Pop-Up Farmers’ Market from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 21 in Stamford. The market has become an annual tradition, and over a dozen vendors will be there to provide a shopping bonanza just before Thanksgiving. 

Shopping local gets you a 10 percent discount on your bill at the Andes Hotel in Andes and O'Neill's Shire Pub in Delhi between Nov. 20 and Dec. 24 this year. Just show your sales receipt to prove that you've bought an item at any local Andes or Delhi business.
