Guided farm tour and mushroom walk with Catskill Fungi

Sip wild-foraged apple ciders in the Catskills

At Left Bank Ciders, we forage wild apples from the Catskill Mountains, making small-batch hard ciders and meads that celebrate this region’s abundant wild apple trees. Go behind the scenes of the cider-making process while sampling a curated flight of our ciders. • Start with a welcome glass of one of our signature pours while we share our approach to making ciders as stewards of the earth. • You’ll take a guided tour of our 19th-century fermentation cellar, where you’ll observe the cider-making steps: from wild apple foraging and fermentation to aging and bottling. • Gather at a communal table, cozy booth, or friendly bar stool, where you’ll enjoy a curated flight of ciders. You’ll leave thinking that apples might just be the coolest fruit in the world (like we do!) and with a newfound appreciation of the region’s wild apple heritage.

Climb to the cascades at Kaaterskill Falls

Long before you hear it, you’ll feel it—the pulse of Kaaterskill Falls echoing through the forest. This is more than a hike; it’s a trek to one of the Catskills’ most iconic natural wonders. Weave through towering trees with me, climb natural rock staircases, and listen as the roar of cascading water grows louder with every step. • Meet at the Kaaterskill Falls trailhead for check-in and equipment fitting. Here, you’ll receive snowshoes or climbing spikes as needed, and get a quick rundown of the trail route and what to expect. • Begin the climb through towering woodland, followed by the Lower Falls Viewing Area for a mesmerizing, ground-level look at the cascading water. • Next, tackle a steeper incline as the landscape transforms into rugged rock formations. Natural ledges offer sweeping vistas of the Catskill Mountains along this stretch, and spots to rest and hydrate. • When you reach the Upper Falls Lookout, the full splendor of Kaaterskill Falls unfolds. But your ascent doesn’t end there. Continue to the very top and enjoy a moment of tranquility while soaking in panoramic views. As you descend and step away from the trail, the roar of the falls and the crisp mountain air will linger, calling you back for your next adventure.

Excursão pela fazenda Otter Creek

Enjoy a FARM TOUR of Otter Creek's diverse group of livestock and historical barns. While on the tour you may meet our pigs, laying hens, meat chickens, Princess the dairy cow and her calf, Fiona the sheep and maybe our grass fed beef herd (depends on where they are grazing at the time). We will discuss the importance of our farming practices and how it creates the most nutrient dense food and why it cost so much and is hard to find. Otter Creek Farm is certified Animal Welfare Approved by AGW so we will also discuss the how's and why's of our animal husbandry. We will get started by meeting at the farm shop and Elizabeth will provide a bit of historical background of the farm and the farmers. Then we will spend about an hour to an hour and a half walking to each group of animals that we have on the farm at the time (animals come in and out seasonally). You will find out all about where your food comes from, the impact of your food choices for yourself, community and environment. Come ready to learn lots and ask as many questions as you want. When you are done you will be inspired to cook or enjoy your next meal with mindfulness and an abundance of joy!
