Stone Arabia is located in the Mohawk Valley
of Upstate New York,
about 40 miles west of Albany, north of the Mohawk River,
and a few miles south of the Adirondack Park boundary.
The village of Stone Arabia is part of the
town of Palatine,
but it's a very different place than the river town a few
miles to the south.
There are no Stewart's in Stone Arabia.
There's no traffic in Stone Arabia.
The ratio of cars to buggies is one of the
lower ones in the country.
The only retail businesses in the village are run by
Amish
workmen and women - woodworking and lumber mills, cabinet making,
furniture design, rugs and Amish quilts, baked goods, jams,
fresh vegetables in
the summer...
