FOR THE FOODIES:

Anybody who’s been here will warn you that we don’t have an in-house chef.

But we do love partnering up with our Wisconsin neighbors just up the road, THE ELEGANT FARMER. They started in 1946 as a family dairy farm, also selling fruits & vegetables. Now known for their Farm Bakery & Kitchen, Deli & Produce, and pick-your-own apples. They’re celebrated for their specialties: Cider Baked Ham, Fruit Applesauces & Crisps, full bakery with Fruit Breads, Gourmet Sauces & Blue Ribbon Cheeses. But most famous for their “Best Apple Pie in AmBobby Flayys @wallstreet.journal, Gourmet Food Network They have an inspirational story for so many of us because they’re proof that doing something right can make you an overnight success. (That and 70 consecutive years of doing something right). Theyre still open every day year round, because that’s what farmers do.

You can shop from our camp newspaper, ring them up to place your order for the Wandawega Picnic before you arrive, and your apple crates are delivered for you: Featuring 30 of the best, regional award winning meats, cheeses, bakery goods and snacks for campers.

Speed lap:
My 20+ year ritual (with these two loves
Lunch with my talent crush at his lovely (and my new obsession)
Finding time capsules on greenwich side streets (I see you, Chess Forum). Hiking the brownstone streets of Greenpoint, gnawing on Vesuvio
and So. Many. Books.

Welcoming an unlikely pair to camp this summer:
tiny glass cabins

Sharing first design boards peek into what we’ve been working on since last fall.

Perched on platforms in the woods – one of the these rustic camping units will have a double bed, the other a lofted bed, both overlooking a glacial kettle (just past the archery range) - They’re gonna be part of one of our three existing rustic camping clusters. We worked with our local structural engineer to get approval for the two platforms they sit on, originally designed to hold a couple of traditional A-frame rustic cabins. But we never got around to building those - and used the decks instead as home base for our Wedge tents (now that those are too worn for another season, we decided to take a different path). The plan is to make them bookable later this summer as a pair, along with two adjacent campsites (offered as a rustic camping cluster for small groups).

Sourced pre-fab from the original builder: commercial grade aluminum framing, he constructed them to be mobile (with built-in fork truck pockets)—- we’ve been in the lumber yard for weeks, custom-building out the interiors of our little ‘Wren NSteven Teichelmanar in birch.

Heat, AC, lighting- (and, for sure, curtains) coming soon.

WE LOVE SURPRISES

(Especially giving them away- like we do in our custom collab coffee bags) We partner with our favorite Wisco neighbors,

whats hidden in each bag:
Micro sportsman gear:
A tiny metal capped glass vial- sealed with our Provisions label - inside you’ll find one of four miniature, functional camp tools :

:* Working compass
* Folding pocket knife
* Hand-tied fly fishing lure
* Pair of tiny dice

Tucked inside are one of a limited edition postcard series we call
“AMERICAN STORIES: THE COFFEE DRINKERS”– historic photographs courtesy of the Library of Congress

We gift a bag each to our guests

FROM THE MAKER:

On bow they source :
“Our partners are coffee producers and importers that build their businesses around quality. They also positively impact society and the Earth we share. When you choose coffee from specialty roasters like Nordskov it helps make the coffee industry, one historically hard on people and planet, more just, resilient, and flavorful. You will only find specialty grade coffees at Nordskov.

On how they roast:
“Raw coffee beans with beautiful natural flavors are the starting point. We create a gentle roast profile for each coffee so you to taste the bean, not the roast. This is the Nordic style. It is a demanding approach that produces nuanced flavorful coffees & clean notes (fruity, nutty, spicy, sweet, herbal and/or floral) We tread lightly on the Earth.Our roaster is fueled by 100% electric power, produces very little CO2 and prevents smoke from entering the roast chamber, or the atmosphere. Better results; less impact”
