One of the wonderful benefits of embarking on this venture is discovering neat little shops and businesses in the greater Catskill Region such as Buzzing Bee Market on Route 212, sort of midway between Saugerties and Woodstock. They just came on board, offering our Kaaterskill Falls and Overlook Mountain patches. And this fine place has so many unusual offerings, much of which you'd be hard pressed to find any place else. The Buzzing Bee features imported goods, ice cream, fresh and seasonal flowers. Among the careful selection of products enjoyed by their family, the community, neighbors, and now customers you’ll find sundries, bottled goods, pastries, gifts, gardening supplies, and much more. Stop in when you're in the neighborhood. You'll be glad you did.

More than two years ago Catskill Collectibles was the first retail outlet to feature my Catskill Climbs Collectable Hiking Patches. It has been, by far, my very best customer. For that I am eternally grateful. I wish Tom much success with his plans to grow and further celebrate the Catskill Mountains, its beauty, its history, and its artists.

Please check out our most recent Catskill Climbs family of shops, Camp Catskill in Tannersville, NY. It is the only true outdoor gear shop within the Catskill Park [the Blue Line] and it is, "...dedicated to offering a carefully curated selection of hiking and camping gear, clothing, and unique gifts that align with our commitment to preserving the natural beauty of our surroundings." Camp Catskill is now offering our Kaaterskill Falls patch and ornament. The very popular view of the falls seen on this patch was first celebrated exactly 200 years ago in a painting by Thomas Cole in 1826, marking a significant moment in American landscape painting. Cole's work helped establish him as a leading figure in the Hudson River School movement. Camp Catskill is located less than 10 minutes away from that beautiful and historic site.

My how we've grown! What started rather tentatively and modestly, with just three patches in June of 2024, now has grown beyond any and all expectations. We now offer in more than 40 outlets throughout the greater Catskill Region [linktr.ee/catskillclimbs] 15 high quality souvenirs in an exclusive series celebrating some of the most popular hikes in the Catskill Mountains. In addition, we recently added holiday ornaments for two of those hikes, Kaaterskill Falls and Overlook Mountain. And coming soon to Catskill Climbs will be a hiking stick medallion, again for that very famous Kaaterskill Falls in Haines Falls, NY. The very popular view of the falls seen on this medallion, our patch, and our holiday ornament was first celebrated exactly 200 years ago in a painting by Thomas Cole in 1826, marking a significant moment in American landscape painting. Cole's work helped establish him as a leading figure in the Hudson River School movement.

For all those collectors, of our patches, or almost anything else, I'd like to invite you to visit a most fascinating and quirky shop that is now featuring several of our Catskill Climbs Collectable Hiking Patches. At The Loafing Bench, 3180 Route 32, on the edge of Saugerties, NY, you will find it jam packed with the most unusual collection of antiques, gifts, humorous metal sculpted creatures of all kinds, and so much more. From their page, "Fun home and garden decor and furnishings-vintage, antique colorful and eclectic mix of goods!" I guarantee you'll have a fun visit, just navigating the shop's many nooks and crannies, inside and out. We're thrilled to have them on board as your latest source for our souvenir patches, and more.
