About Us

Rutland, VT hostel Our premier hostel location along the Appalachian Trail is Rutland, VT. We've been operating as a hostel since 2012 in that location, offering hikers rides into town and a clean, affordable place to stay and clean up. Downstairs, we also run a small casual café-style restaurant named The Yellow Deli. We also have other locations along the trail: our organic Stoneybrook Farm in Hillsboro, VA (near Harper's Ferry, WV). .

Meanwhile along the Continental Divide Trail (accessible by bus) we also have a mesa property just outside the city limits of Boulder, Colorado, looking toward the Flatirons. In downtown Boulder, we also run a restaurant called The Yellow Deli. Volunteers and work trade is requested there, but come as you are! 

Organic Farms

We have about a dozen organic farms in North America (US, Canada, and Mexico). We welcome visitors and workers to come and stay with us — for a day or forever!
