GREEN WEEKEND GETAWAY: Linda Aldredge’s Treehouse

By Jill Danyelle on: Sustainable Building



















If you head north from New York City and hang a left on Route 28 up near Woodstock you’ll find yourself on a very scenic drive through Catskill State Park. Verdant hills dotted with lakes and ponds seem to roll on forever in between the forested mountain tops. It is here, up in the trees, that Linda Aldredge, the owner of LuLu Organics, built her weekend getaway. We came across Linda’s blog about her experience in the woods via a profile of her friends on The Selby.

Lucky for us, Linda graciously answered some questions and invited us for a treehouse weekend.
