Farm Update – Memorial Day Weekend

About Us | Events

Happy Memorial Day Weekend from Crossroads Farm!

During this busy weekend of barbecues and family activities, lets take time to remember the sacrifices our veterans and their families have endured to ensure our freedom.

Up Next – Food Truck Rodeo Friday, June 15th!

The weather just refused to comply for our first Food Truck Rodeo of the season scheduled for May, so we’re trying it again in June!

Get ready for lots of outdoor fun. There’s family fun for all including hayrides, corn hole games, a bouncy house and face painting for the kids. Adults can enjoy craft beer from Lithology Brewing Co. and other local breweries. They’ll be wine and spirits from Long Island Beverage Brokers. The food trucks that will be participating for this event: Empanada Queen, Good Eats Grill, Mr. Smith’s Seafood, and Frozen Sin.

They’ll be entertainment by the Stagecoach Band of Long Island. And maybe, some dancing too!

Tickets for the Food Truck Rodeo may be purchased in advance at the Farm stand or at the door.
