Nestled between the foot of the Catskill Mountains and the ambling Kaaterskill Creek, Nimble Roots Farm is located just minutes outside the town of Catskill, NY. Learn more about sustainable farming practices while exploring the woods, pastures, and creek-side flats of our 145 acre working farm. Located less than 10 minutes from downtown Catskill, 20 minutes to Hudson, and within 30 minutes to Woodstock, Saugerties, Tannersville, Germantown, etc. - there is so much to do, see and explore nearby. It is with gratitude and humility that we acknowledge that we are learning, living, gathering and growing on the ancestral lands of the Muhheaconneok or Mohican people, who are the indigenous peoples of this land. Despite tremendous hardship in being forced from here, today their community resides in Wisconsin and is known as the Stockbridge-Munsee Community. We pay honor and respect to their ancestors past and present as we commit to building a more inclusive and equitable space for all. We commit to amplifying and centering the history and current experience of the Stockbridge Munsee community. We invite and welcome Stockbridge-Munsee community members to this land to hold and engage in spiritual, cultural and social gatherings. We will donate 5% of all net proceeds from land-based enterprises to the construction of their new cultural center. We will work with community farmers and herbalists to plant, tend, save and exchange seed of culturally significant varieties of plants. We will lend our voices in efforts to reclaim ancestral land and to assert the sovereignty of their people.Situated a moderate 8 minute hike from the main hub of our 145 acre working farm, rest in the shade of a large shagbark hickory tree with views to the Olana Historic Site. Explore the trails through the woods and pastures, take a dip in the Kaaterskill Creek, or meet the animals and learn more about life on an organic farm during a scheduled tour. Meet and greet your farmer-hosts upon arrival and we will haul your gear while you embark on the path, with beautiful views overlooking the farm, up to your site. Additional campers with their own tent are welcome, please check with us for pricing. 5% of our earnings from each listing goes to a recurring donation to the Stockbridge-Munsee Community, who are the indigenous peoples of this land.
