Copperleaf Catering Co.

Kingston, NY Serves the Hudson Valley, up to 45 miles from Kingston Catering since 2016

Seasonal, from-scratch catering for weddings, corporate lunches and family celebrations across the Hudson Valley. We cook what the farms around Kingston are actually picking that week, we quote by hand, and we do not take more events in a weekend than we can cook properly. Pick the dishes you are interested in, tell us about your event, and we will send back a real quote.

The room, on the night

Good to know

Where they go

We cover the Hudson Valley — roughly 45 miles out from Kingston, which takes in Rhinebeck, New Paltz, Woodstock, Hudson and most of Ulster and Dutchess. Delivery inside 15 miles is included; past that we add $2.50 a mile and we will tell you the number before you book. Further than 45 miles we will still talk to you, it just becomes a custom quote. Delivery is included within 15 miles. Beyond that it is $2.50 a mile. They go up to 45 miles out.

Notice and minimums

Copperleaf Catering Co. needs 2 days' notice and 25 guests. Under either, they price it by hand.

Deposits and payment

A 25% deposit holds your date and it is what actually takes the day off our calendar. The balance is due the week of the event. We will confirm both, and how to pay them, when we send your quote. A 25% deposit holds the date; the balance is due before the event.

What service styles do you offer?

Buffet, family style, plated with a service team, passed canapés, and straight drop-off in disposable trays. Most weddings we do are family style. If you are not sure which suits your room, say so in your request and we will suggest one.

Can you handle allergies and dietary needs?

Yes, and please tell us early rather than on the day. Every dish on this page carries its marks, we cook gluten-free and vegan on separate boards, and our kitchen does handle nuts, dairy, shellfish and wheat — so for a severe allergy we will talk it through with you directly before we quote.

Do you do tastings?

For weddings and anything over 75 guests, yes — a tasting for up to four people at the kitchen in Kingston, on a weekday evening, $75 which comes off your invoice when you book. For smaller events we skip it and send samples if you are local.

What’s your cancellation policy?

More than 30 days out, the deposit is refunded in full. Inside 30 days we keep the deposit, because that is the weekend we turned away. Inside 7 days the full balance stands — by then the food is bought and the team is booked. Moving a date once, for anything, is free.

Meet the caterer

Copperleaf Catering Co.

Copperleaf is June Castellano and her husband Marcus, and it started in 2016 out of a rented church kitchen on Wall Street in Kingston. June cooked on the line in New York for eleven years — the last four as sous at a farm-to-table room in the Flatiron — and came up the river wanting to cook for rooms full of people who actually know each other. Marcus runs the floor and the van. We are ServSafe certified and fully licensed and insured through Ulster County, we buy from six farms inside an hour of the kitchen, and we still only take one wedding a weekend, because the short rib that made people call us in the first place takes four hours and will not be hurried.
