Pumpkin Hollow Retreat Center honors its founders, who embraced Theosophical principles and respect for all life. For over 85 years, from May to November, individuals have developed a community centered on wisdom and fellowship. Historical accounts highlight the founding families' contributions to establishing this regional Theosophical center. The activities at Pumpkin Hollow promote a balance between work and study, fostering exploration of spirituality and Theosophy. Today, the spirit and ideals of Pumpkin Hollow remain vibrant.

Situated between the picturesque Berkshire and Taconic Mountains, Pumpkin Hollow encompasses 130 acres of meadows, woodlands, flower gardens, and a vegetable garden nourished by the serene Taconic Stream. Cascading over a waterfall, this stream enriches the area's campfire space, swimming location, and meditation center.

The Hollow provides a distinctive environment for workshops and yoga sessions. It features a central farmhouse, historic red barn, carriage house, meditation center, meeting spaces, and cabins set within beautifully maintained grounds. A network of trails guides visitors to the labyrinth, Healer's Sanctuary, peace prayer pole, and meditation path, fostering a deeper connection with nature and self.

Barn Raising Capital Campaign

The Pumpkin Hollow Barn was moved from elsewhere in the Hudson Valley to this location in 1882 and is, in all likelihood, over a century and a half old. Over the years, the barn's wood siding has been maintained in sections, with parts replaced and restored as needed and as funds allowed. Now, in 2025, the barn siding needs to be replaced, and a foundational beam needs to be lifted to preserve the structural integrity of the building.
