How to Spend a Perfect Fall Weekend in Upstate New York in Vogue

by Lisa Przystup

My husband and I live in an 1893 farmhouse in Delhi—a small town in the Western Catskills that’s about three hours from the city and Bovina/Andes adjacent. Here’s the thing about upstate New York: every season has its merits—some more than others (looking at you winter, looking at you)—and fall just so happens to be a really great time to lap up so much of what the area has to offer. There’s farmers markets and hikes, apple picking and gourd collecting, plus a handful of really terrific places to grab a bite, which is basically how we spent the last weekend. What follows is a diary of sorts.
