Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Welcome to Roots and Culture! We are a small, becoming site for Afroecology, located on ancestral and unceded Munsee Lenape land, now called Marlborough. We offer camping to guests who attend our pick-your-own days, wellness workshops, and community organizing events. We have tents, sleeping bags, and other gear available for rent and several group campsites available for tent camping. We have several gardens that produce fruits and vegetables May through November and are happy to offer garden tours and plant-based meals to guests by request. We always need help, so if you are willing to participate in a project during your stay, please indicate in your reservation. From weeding and turning compost, to planting trees and harvesting garlic, there are always a number of ways to add your energy to the farm. There is also a creek/swimming hole to enjoy on warmer days, especially after working in one of the gardens. There is a campfire space that all guests share and guests are allowed small private fires when the fire ban is not in effect. We do not currently provide bathroom facilities. We ask guests to use a modest compost toilet. Nearby are the Falcon (wonderful music venue), Marlborough Nature Trail, Marlborough Farm Trail, brewing companies and wineries, orchards, U-Picks, parks on the Hudson River, and 15 minutes to the many other hiking trails in the area.Experience total darkness in this secluded field or garden campsite where you have the option to light a fire or take a dip in the creek. 420 friendly hosts. Breakfast and/or lunch available by request. This is a great location for bird watching or experiencing getting away from the City without actually having to go that far. 15 minutes from Beacon train station, 15 minutes from wineries, breweries, restaurants and other shops.

Tent
We spent a lovely night at Jocelyn's place. The spot was exactly as described and Jocelyn was very friendly, communicative and accommodating. There are houses nearby, but we were able to pitch our tent was was not in direct view of the main house, so that was not an issue.
