About
Forest Fringe Farm is a human-scale regenerative farm and gathering space located 2.5 hours from NYC in Bethel, NY. The farm is on an 8-acre property made up of meadows, wetlands, and a wild sprawling forest. Nestled within the landscape we have built a small cabin equipped with 600 watts of solar power, 275 gallons of rainwater and an outdoor shower as well as a 24' deck, compost toilet, hoophouse, garden beds, and a fire pit to support events and communal gatherings.
✶ Philosophy
People are part of the ecology and we host events that highlight interspecies interaction, reverence for the natural environment, and an emphasis on prioritizing systems that keep our carbon footprint low.
✶ Meet the farmer
Kamra works through land, sound, and story. Kamra uses material means to build ecological relationships between people, beyond human life forms, and natural elements stewarding glimpses of a new world possible now. Kamra received their Permaculture Design Certification from the Center for Bioregional Living and started this farm after their tenure hosting artist residencies at other people's farms.
