Now through December 2nd, every Giving Tuesday gift will be matched up to $6,000, allowing your donation to make twice the impact for our land and water!

Your Giving Tuesday gift will support programs like Learning Landscapes — a new initiative to create outdoor classrooms in partnership with Rensselaer County schools — and land conservation across the county, from the Hudson River to the Taconic crest.

We thank HTL members Fred and Mona DeMay for their generous match pledge. With you, we can raise $12,000 — or more — to keep local conservation going strong!

Get together with a community of people who love the land like you do—at the Fall Woodland Gala!

The Hudson Taconic Lands Fall Woodland Gala is 5 WEEKS AWAY on Thursday, September 25 at Franklin Plaza Ballroom in downtown Troy! If you haven’t purchased a ticket yet, we hope you’ll consider joining us for our largest annual fundraiser—and if you’re already planning to attend, we encourage you to spread the word to friends!

This year’s gala is sure to be a joyful and inspiring gathering of people who love the land. It’s especially important right now for our conservation work, as some of our federal funding did not come through this year. The gala is a FUN way to keep this work going strong.

Have you see an external hard drive in the Barberville Falls Preserve parking lot? 🤔 👀

A community member, Gretchen, thinks her external hard drive fell out of her car when she was hiking there a few Saturdays ago on 4/12 between 3-5:30pm. She had precious photos on the device and is hoping to recover them. 💚

Let's help her find it!🙏

If you happened to see it or have any information, you can reach out to Gretchen directly. Her contact information can be found on the flyer. Thank you so much for your help!
