The Story Behind the Coolest New Spot in Kingston, NY

In this video, we share out Rot & Fallow is a third space in Kingston, NY that is an amazing place to stop in, rest, and recharge.

After years in the high-pressure world of tech, Giulienne found herself at a breaking point. The solution didn't come from a screen—it came from the Swiss Alps. Inspired by the rugged, soul-warming hospitality of Alpine refuges, she returned to Kingston, NY, with a radical mission: to build a "shared living room" for the community.

Welcome to Rot & Fallow.

In this video, we were lucky enough to go behind the scenes of Kingston’s most intentional community space.

Rot & Fallow isn't just a cafe or a lounge; it’s a refuge designed to help you relax, recharge, and rediscover the art of human connection.

Whether you’re a Kingston local looking for your new favorite spot or an entrepreneur dreaming of creating your own community hub, Giulienne’s story is a masterclass in purposeful design and authentic hospitality.
