There is always something going on at The Preserve—this time it was two days of cutting down invasive vines that hinder forest growth, building trail boardwalks, and planting native vegetation with members of the Student Conservation Association!

Vassar students joined the Student Conservation Association (SCA) to restore trails and habitat at The Preserve, honoring the victims of 9/11 while carrying forward the vision of SCA founder Elizabeth Cushman Titus Putnam ’55.
