2023-2024 Guide to Pure Catskills Cover

Welcome to the 2023-2024 Guide to Pure Catskills Products, your one-stop source for where to eat, drink, shop, stay and play in the Catskills! Community is the root from which the Pure Catskills initiative started and continues to grow from. Our membership, as shown throughout this Guide, has reached 350 for the first time since we launched in 2004. Pure Catskills has always been a trusted resource for Catskills residents and visitors alike, but more than that, we continue to be a trusted space for businesses (old and new) to be a part of something bigger and to market their work, products and story. It is also a testament to our farmers that grow and produce high-quality food, and to the consumers who value knowing where their food comes from.

This year, we are proud to highlight our Pure Catskills community through multiple lenses. On each county map you will find a featured town that lists local farms and products, places to eat and stay, places to shop, support organizations, and activities and events. You’ll also find a cultivation of stories from farmers, producers, makers and chefs. We encourage you to shop from Red Kill Mountain Homestead Farms where you can purchase a variety of preserved goods, and River Breeze Alpacas where you can shop for all your raw fiber necessities. If you’re looking for places to eat, visit The Kaatskeller and Maggie’s Krooked Café two restaurants serving locally sourced food year-round. These features, along with all our member listings, are what makes this region so special.

River Breeze Alpacas

After being mesmerized by llamas at a nearby farm, I became certain that llamas would be a part of my life. Full of personality: tall with long necks, soft, flowing fiber, large, full, soulful eyes and perfectly shaped banana ears that let you know you’ve got their attention. What’s not to love?

The Kaatskeller

The Kaatskeller was opened in 2017 by Jon Westergreen and Chris Tierney along with the help of a few great partners. Our vision was to offer locally inspired wood fired pizzas, salads, sides and cocktails, to be enjoyed in the out-doors under twinkling lights with the glamour of the bygone resort era and the current Catskills vibe.

Red Kill Mountain Homestead Farms

Red Kill Mountain Homestead Farms is the first and only known seller of wild apples. Our apples are genetically unique and receive no outside inputs from us, except for some pruning here and there. Our apple trees spread out across a mountainside, where each year we hand-select apples and pack them in boxes and ship them all over the nation.
