Hudson Valley / Hyde Park
Dutchess County
Hyde Park
Hyde Park is defined by two institutions: the Culinary Institute of America, whose graduates staff the kitchens across the region, and the FDR Home / Vanderbilt Mansion / Val-Kill cluster that makes the town a living historic-sites weekend. A licensed cannabis dispensary operates in town. This hub covers the culinary-and-presidential Hyde Park weekend for adult consumers 21+ — the CIA student restaurants, the historic sites, the farm-to-table circuit on Rt 9, and how the dispensary fits.
