They now have over 3,000 taps and have expanded their herd of grass fed and finished beef animals. The farm also offers lamb and pastured chicken and turkeys, and a variety of Mom Carolyn’s beautiful wool products and soaps. A Pure Catskills tent and staff will be at this location.
- Birdsong Farm Community Garden is a unique collaboration between CCE and benefactor Richard Lamson. Environmentally friendly practices are used to grow an abundance of produce in raised beds.
