MAY: IN FULL BLOOM
The property is ablaze with Spring flowers. Adirondack chairs beckon near warming caldrons. Hammocks are out again at their campsites.
May is particularly busy at Troutbeck, with Mother's Day Weekend offerings — Erika Bloom wellness classes, Jaime Reynolds watercolor workshop, and a special prix fixe Mother's Day Brunch that celebrates the season with Spring stars like morels, peas, asparagus, nettles and lamb.
On May 19, our friends + local artists at Cottage Courses will be hosting a natural dye workshop at Troutbeck and local author Tania Shoumatoff will host a book talk on Harlem Valley history.
And then, of course, there's our official start to Summer: Memorial Day Weekend, replete with a whole pig feast at the Pole Barn, Sunday Brunch and Monday Pasta Night.
Benton Cottage — the historic c. 1770, 4-bedroom house, with living room, dining room + kitchenette — has some availability to rent as a whole (including over Mother's Day weekend!), ideal for a family or friend trip. To inquire, please call or email
SPRING ON YOUR PLATE
Ramps, morels, asparagus, peas...the land has reawakened and our tastebuds are reaping the rewards.
