Welcome!
Whether a visitor, resident, or local business owner, welcome to the Sugar Loaf Community Foundation (SLCF) - whose simple goal is to "enhance the quality of life" in the hamlet of Sugar Loaf, NY.
​
Sugar Loaf is so much more than a "crafts village". With its rich history dating back to the early 18th century, it's a place for the history buff. A place for the study of Native American culture and archaeology. A place to celebrate nature and the area's amazing flora and fauna. A place for the epicurean - including food, wine, craft beers and spirits. A place for the concert and theatre goer at a world class facility - SLPAC.
All under the majestic gaze of one of the tallest mountains in Orange County - Sugar Loaf Mountain.
The focus of the SLCF is to make Sugar Loaf a better, happier and healthier place to live.
Objectives include:
- Identify and help resolve issues that affect the residents, businesses and hamlet.
- Preserve, promote and celebrate the history, beauty and diversity of the area.
- Sponsor community events such as: Fall and Spring Festivals, Holiday Celebration.
- Sponsor beautification and landscaping initiatives such as: planting flowers and trees.
- Prepare for the future. With the changes in demographics, technology and consumer behavior, how can we best prepare for the future.
​
Sugar Loaf is still best known as a crafts village, but over time - with the advancement of e-commerce and new technologies - things change.
​
But what's not changed is the natural beauty of the area, the kindness and diversity of the residents - and the unique entrepreneurial spirit of its artisans, merchants and business owners.
