Welcome

With a diversity of enterprises and cultural initiatives that have grown organically over the past 40 years on a 400-acre working Biodynamic farm, Hawthorne Valley Association provides a unique environment for a robust community — one based on genuine human relationships, good food, wonder and love of nature, and continued commitment to self-development and lifelong learning in a social context.

Hawthorne Valley remains committed to social and cultural renewal through the integration of education, agriculture, and the arts. Located in central Columbia County, NY, an easy trip from Albany, New York City, Boston, and other points in the Northeast and mid-Atlantic, we welcome you to visit and to take an hour, a day, a week, or more to come explore!

A vibrant place to learn and grow!
