entire family. Make sure to refer to the back of this letter for your itinerary
schedule.
As you can

special event ticket marked “FARM FRESH”.
To get to the Farm Fresh bus that
will be your transportation throughout the day, take Metro-North’s Hudson Line
to Beacon Station. Give the conductor
your rail ticket to punch and give back to you.
Make sure to hold onto your rail
ticket for the return trip home.
When you
get to the station, follow the signs to the bus area and look for the loop bus
stop. Your bus will be the one with the
sign that reads “DUTCHESS COUNTY FARM FRESH”.
When you
board the bus, simply give the driver your special event ticket marked “FARM FRESH”.
The Link
meets the train leaving Grand Central Terminal at 8:47 a.m., arriving Beacon
