/r/Upstate_New_York is back open!

Upvotes

Hello fellow upstaters!

About a month and a half ago, /r/upstate_new_york was set to restricted and all the moderators left.

As someone who was born and raised in Upstate New York, I didn't want to see this sub shuttered. So I requested ownership from the Admins.


This sub is now reopened! Hopefully we can keep things going as smoothly as they were before.

A few FAQs:

  • No rules are changing - we'll likely have a post in the coming weeks to discuss rules and what the community wants.

  • If you want to be a mod, please don't message me. I'm going to get a handle on this first, and then likely open up mod positions over the coming weeks depending on the workload.

  • I have no idea why this all happened. The moderation logs were cleared before I was given access.

New York State fair prices

Upvotes

today I went to the fair specifically the Boba tea place to buy a mangonada, the lady told me it was $16 plus tax for a medium. Last year I went to the same place. I bought the same drinks, though I found it still expensive. It was about 7 dollars . The prices this year were absurd , everything was between $12-$20 per one item. Vendors were definitely overpricing things to the max. The New York State fair is definitely becoming unaffordable for regular folks who love to attend.

All Points West Distillery moving from Newark, NJ to Kingston NY because of a more favorable business climate and less regulations. "New York leaders approach craft distilleries as an agricultural industry rather than a tool of local economic development..."

"Minimoon" resorts, or cabin recommendations?

Upvotes

I'm getting married this December and would like to treat my wife-to-be to a Monday-Friday stay somewhere before we take our official honeymoon later in 2027.

Ideal price range would be in the $2k area, aiming for something with a rustic feel. She's also a big fan of saunas, so that'd be a plus too.

Mirbeau looks great, but the dining costs might be a budget killer.

Any recommendations are welcome and appreciated!

Seventh Seed Is OPEN FOR SUBMISSIONS Through September 30th!

Upvotes

Seventh Seed is a literary journal cultivating the strange. Our first issue, TAPE 01: GENESIS is OPEN FOR SUBMISSIONS.

Genesis explores the concept of origins, creation, or inception—but through a lens of disruption, dark revelation, or chilling discovery. We are looking for pieces centered around a singular "first seed" that sets off an unstoppable chain of events. Genesis premieres on Halloween—bring us origin stories that were never meant to be found.

We publish poetry, flash fiction, and flash creative nonfiction under 500 words. Submissions are FREE. This is a passion project for us. We look forward to reading your work.🕷️
