At their 95-acre forest farm and camp near the Greene County town of Cairo, Justin Wexler and Anna Plattner are re-creating the landscape as it was known to the native inhabitants of the region. Each weekend throughout the summer, they invite visitors to the property, Wild Hudson Valley, to learn about edible plants, medicine, folklore, history, and both ancient and modern forest farming practices.

Guided nature walks and workshops are geared toward all ages. Programs for families help kids and adults connect with nature. For an even more immersive experience, visitors can stay overnight at one of four eco-campsites. 

Unlike most nature education programs, Anna and Justin emphasize the role of native peoples in relating to the land. Justin’s fascination with the natural world began when he was a child growing up in the Hudson Valley.

“I realized by time I was eight or nine that the people who would know the land best were the people who lived here for generations but were driven out of their homeland,” he said. By his teens, he was trying to visualize the life of the Lenape, who inhabited the area before they were displaced by European settlers. 

As he researched the history of the Hudson Valley and its occupants, Justin made connections with descendants of the Lenape, now dispersed to communities in Ontario, Wisconsin and Oklahoma. After befriending residents of those communities, he hosted Lenape people who came to visit their homeland. He continues to make links with organizations that would help represent their culture and history.

A Testimony from Haverford Friends Meeting

Please join Haverford Friends in Supporting

A spiritually lead presentation by our own William Woys Weaver

The Foodways of the Lenapehocking

This Saturday, April 29th , 1PM

(With child centered activities in the forum room)

The Foodways of Lenapehocking: Garden Plants and Food Customs

This Power Point presentation by well-known author Dr. William Woys Weaver will explore the story of The Roughwood Seed Collection and how it acquired what is now considered the largest collection of Eastern Woodland seeds in private hands. Several members of Haverford Meeting, such as the late Indian activist Theodore Hetzel, who was a long-time member, helped to build this priceless cultural archive. A sub-theme of the lecture will be the relationship between Quakers and saving seeds from indigenous people.

Refreshments will be served following the lecture and will include Lenape Psindamocan Bread (parched sweet corn bread) containing dried cranberries in reference to an ancient Lenape creation story. In honor of the mutual respect between William Penn and the Lenape peoples, the Psindamocan Bread will be served on a great pewter charger given by William Penn as a wedding gift to Dr. Weaver’s ancestor Benjamin Hickman (1677-1742) and Ann Buffington who were married at Concord Friends Meeting on April 9, 1701. Ann Buffington was the daughter of Richard Buffington (1655-1747), Proprietor of New Jersey and friend of William Penn.

“Our message today is twofold:

First, Quakers against all odds managed to preserve some of this Native American heritage as an unspoken token of respect for William Penn’s message of peace and tolerance.

Secondly, the message of wampum: the mutual love and respect of cultures living side by side. The word for wampum (kekok)translates in the Delaware language: I give this from my heart. This is my bond…

Most parents will have waged battles with their children over eating fruit and vegetables. But instead of sitting and watching a little one push their plate away or refuse to touch a food they don’t like, researchers have now reported that the key to getting kids to eat “significantly” more is getting them to stay at the dining table for longer.
