Earth Fest

Details:

As land stewards of an important and evolving 112-acre site along the Hudson River, Boscobel is proud to launch our first Earth Fest. Join us for a gathering of local farmers and environmental groups and learn how you can help protect our planet.

Stay and explore Boscobel’s budding landscape, woodland trails, and new sustainability projects on guided (pay-what-you-wish) grounds tours at 10:30; 11:00; 11:30; 12:00; and 12:30.
