Friends of the Walkway, the independent nonprofit partner of New York State Parks supporting Walkway Over the Hudson State Historic Park, welcomes Adams Fairacre Farms as a corporate partner in 2026.  The local farm market and garden center chain will sponsor the Walkway’s annual July 4^th Fireworks Spectacular as well as serve as the event’s official headquarters to stock up on snacks and supplies.

“Adams Fairacre Farms have been longtime supporters of Friends of the Walkway in many ways, and we’re thrilled to have them as an annual partner,” said Lori Robertson, Executive Director, Friends of the Walkway.  “Together, we’ll make the July 4^th Fireworks Spectacular better than ever while tangibly improving the everyday Walkway experience too.”

Adams Fairacre Farms is a beloved Hudson Valley destination that blends the feel of a family-run farm market with the scale and variety of a full-service grocery store. Known for its fresh, locally sourced produce, expansive garden center, and thoughtfully curated selection of specialty foods, Adams has built a reputation for quality and community connection over generations. Beyond groceries, it offers everything from houseplants and outdoor décor to prepared foods and baked goods, making it as much an experience as a place to shop. For many residents, a trip to Adams is a seasonal ritual, whether picking up plants in the spring, cider in the fall, or holiday treats in the winter.

“Adams Fairacre Farms has always believed in the power of community, and the Walkway Over the Hudson is one of the Hudson Valley’s most treasured shared spaces,” said Wendy Troncone, Marketing Director, Adams Fairacre Farms. “We’re proud to help make the July 4th Fireworks Spectacular a memorable experience for families across the region, and we look forward to being a destination where neighbors can gather and prepare for a perfect day on the Walkway.”

The support of Adams Fairacre Farms directly benefits beloved Walkway events, programs, volunteers, and more. It stands as a leading example of how dedicated community members can partner with the Friends of the Walkway to creatively impact the more than 600,000 people that cross the span each year.  For additional information about available opportunities, visit walkway.org/partnership.
