Grace Farms, CT was designed by SANAA, the Pritzker Prize winning Japanese architecture firm, and named as a “favorite building of the decade” in Cultured magazine. Grace Farms was created as a peaceful respite and porous platform for people to experience nature, encounter the arts, pursue justice, foster community, and explore faith within an 80-acre landscape in Connecticut. The River building at Grace Farms is part of the landscape without drawing attention to itself, and floats as a ribbon of glass and steel above the hilly landscape making the building part of nature.

Source Brewing believes the best beer drinking experience is had at the Source in the Colt's Neck, which is home to Bruce Springsteen, Jon Stewart and Queen Latifah. Their mission is to create the ideal environment for people to enjoy hand-crafted, farm-to-glass ales and lagers brewed on site. Beer can have a personality, tell a story, wow the senses, and bring people together. Their 10 barrel brewery is located in a renovated 130 year old farmhouse that has its original atmosphere including the silos. We recommend trying their Source of Hoppiness IPA and the Tropical Milkshake IPA.

At Hudson Valley Brewery, they like to think of their beer as the product of a wide variety of influences. Like the Hudson Valley itself, they believe the beers they create stand somewhere between the rural and the urban, the traditional and the modern, the rustic and the industrial. Their brewing techniques are inspired by the brewing practices of traditional European breweries as well as the more aggressive, experimental practices of American breweries. They brew the beer they love to drink, which like the Hudson Valley itself, is always changing. We recommend trying their famous Incandenza and Amorphia for a great introduction to their unique sours.

One of the hidden treasures of Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area is undoubtedly Hornbecks Creek Trail, known to some locals as Indian Ladders. Once you've arrived at the first waterfall, which by itself is worth the trip, the trail becomes a bit more narrow and rugged. The "ladder" sequence of waterfalls following the first will keep your enthusiasm high. Take your time as you enjoy one of Pennsylvania's most beautiful cascades. The moderate hike is 3.7 miles long and we recommend taking your time through the unique terrain.

Popular with surfers, Ditch Plains Beach beach is two miles east of Montauk on the ocean. The super long break makes surfing ideal for newbies or veteran long boarders. Ditch Plains Beach has beautiful cliffs rising at its western end at Shadmoor Park, restrooms, outdoor showers, lifeguards during the summer season, and concession trailers that serve more than just snacks. Parking is restricted so you should arrange a drop off or walk over to the beach. We recommend bringing a large beach towel, so that you can lounge out after walking up and down the beach.

Indian Head Mountain is named after its unique natural formation where the summit resembles a forehead, the middle knoll looks like a nose and the eastern knoll creates the chin. This is not the most strenuous hike in the Catskills, however it is one of the most rewarding hikes in the region. On your way up to the summit you’ll experience creeks, streams and even a waterfall. When you reach the summit you’ll experience hemlocks and balsam firs that extend over the entire upper ridge. This difficult hike is a 5.9 mile loop trail located near Elka Park that is accessible year-round.

Lil' Deb's Oasis chef/owners Hannah Black and Carla Perez-Gallardo self-identify as tropical comfort maximalists, an intense sensibility that permeates the decor as much as it does the flavorful pan-Latinx menu. Walking into the salmon-toned restaurant amidst the flicker and buzz of neon signs, customers are met with shimmering blue tiles, plant patterned floors, and fake flowers. To enter the art installation/restaurant hybrid is to dive headfirst into a brilliant aquarium of tropical kitsch art gracefully manages to be both saturated with flavor and exquisitely balanced, exotic and familiar—a feat which recently earned them a coveted James Beard Award nomination. We recommend trying the Gambas Al Ajillo and the Plato Tropical.

Bjorn Boyer and a few of his friends wanted to create a cozy space where they could curl up after a day of hiking and just relax. They wanted to create a unique Scandinavian home away from home getaway experience. Eastwind, opened in 2018, is a boutique hotel nestled on a quaint hillside with sweeping views of the Windham Mountain in the Catskills, and is the place to run away for a quiet escape or a new adventure.
