Bull Hill (Mount Taurus) Hike in Cold Spring: An Easy Quarry Trail and a Fall Walking Meditation in the Hudson Valley

Bull Hill rises directly above the village of Cold Spring, and every weekend the Metro-North platform below it fills with people carrying backpacks, trail snacks and the bright expression of New Yorkers who have decided that today they are outdoorsy. Most of them are headed for the summit of Mount Taurus, the mountain’s other name and its more glamorous one. I came for the first half mile. On a clear November afternoon I walked the Washburn Trail up to the abandoned quarry at the foot of the mountain, a small and easy Hudson Valley hike that delivers a golden meadow, a wall of ancient rock and enough stillness to rearrange an entire week.

Feta, holiday orders, and going nuts for nuts!

This week I have a hankering for feta so, of course, I’m headed right to Maplebrook Farm Creamery! This green feta diplooks absolutely mouthwatering, and will be a cinch to make once I’ve picked up some White Moustache Greek yogurt and Halal Pastures Farm herbs and garlic. I think I even spy some gorgeous, pink-flecked castelfranco radicchio in the photo of the veggie board to serve it with — and believe it or not, Titusville Farm has that exact kind! It’s an heirloom Italian variety also known as the “Tulip of Winter” or “Winter Rose”, and it’s milder and sweeter than its purple counterparts. Give it a try with your green feta dip. I’ll also be cutting up some Titusville French breakfast radishes, and enormous Madura Farm celery, to pair alongside this creamy spread. As for something salty? There’s the must-try garbanzo bean chips from SAHA Guys! And hey, why not pick up some of their hummus, too, for when your homemade dip runs out?
