Dining
- We are proud of our kosher farm-to-table kitchen under the supervision of the Orthodox Union (OU).
- We strive to follow Adamah’s mission of cultivating a more sustainable future by centering our food offerings around lots of vegetarian options, what is presently available on our farm and what we can source locally. Our delicious meals reflect the season and land at the time of your visit.
- All meals will be buffet style and have open seating
- As we are not licensed to serve alcohol, guests are welcome to bring any kind of wine/alcohol as long as it is sealed, heckschered as MEVUSHAL, and checked by our mashgiach at the registration desk upon arrival.
Davening & Jewish Ritual Elements
We will offer community-led Shabbat services with a mehitzah Friday night and Saturday day if there is enough interest to make a minyan.
We will have all the customary elements of Shabbat including candle-lighting, challah, grape juice, havdalah – and even matzah ball soup!
We have a natural creek mikvah and an eruv around the entire property including hiking trails.
Attire
Our Mother’s Day R&R Weekend will be retreat-center-casual. Remember layers, sneakers and yoga clothes!
