THe Full Circle Family
Full Circle is a vibrant collective of independently owned small businesses in the Hudson Valley. While each business is separately owned and operated, we came together as friends with a shared vision: to create a place where community, creativity, good food, and the natural beauty of Gardiner could all come together — in full circle.
Founded by Mike and Christina Benevento, Full Circle is home to:
Gardiner Bakehouse – founded by Rochelle, a longtime friend who grew her kitchen microbakery into a beloved brick-and-mortar bakery surrounded by community.
Benton – created by Greg and Melissa Gagne, seasoned local restaurateurs who dreamed of offering their own casual, welcoming spot for people to gather over good food and drinks.
Hudson Valley Trailworks – a team of trail builders who found a home here to share their love of the outdoors and connect the community through local trails.
The Living Room at Full Circle – a community programming and event space founded by Christina Benevento, offering classes, workshops, performances, and gatherings that bring people together through creativity and connection.
Together, we make up Full Circle — a welcoming hub for food, nature, learning, and local culture. Though each business operates independently, we collaborate closely and continue to grow through the involvement and support of our community and beyond.
