Your nosy, enthusiastic friend who knows every farm stand, fire tower, and good cider in the Hudson Valley.
Hudson Valley Almanac started as a simple problem: I kept wanting to know where the good stuff was — the farm with the honor-system egg fridge, the brewery down the dirt road, the fire tower worth the climb — and no single place had it all. So I started writing it down. Then I didn't stop. Now it's 1,400-and-counting listings across the Valley, each one researched and written by hand with zero ads.
It's free, and it'll stay free. But servers don't run on enthusiasm, and neither do I (well — mostly enthusiasm, plus coffee). If the Almanac has saved you from a bad afternoon or sent you somewhere great, you can buy me one. It keeps the lights on, keeps me independent, and funds the next dirt-road detour.
No pressure. But if you do — thanks. You're keeping a very specific obsession alive.
