About Us
The village of Catskill, located within the broader Catskill region in New York State, is home to a diverse range of native trees, reflective of the Northeastern hardwood forest ecosystem. This area, part of the larger Appalachian forest, showcases a variety of deciduous and coniferous trees that have adapted to the local climate and soil conditions over millennia.
