While we endure this time of uncertainty and mounting concerns over the Coronavirus pandemic, the Mohawk Hudson Land Conservancy would like to offer you a breath of fresh air. With 36 miles of trails winding through the fields and forests on 18 preserves, MHLC encourages you to practice social distancing while enjoying the vast health benefits of being outdoors.

For more than twenty years, Matt Bender was a guiding force in the growth of the Mohawk Hudson Land Conservancy. The Board of Trustees, staff, and volunteers of MHLC send our condolences to the Bender family on the passing of Matthew Bender. We join with many others in the Capital Region and beyond in celebrating his life and mourning his loss.

3 acres of farmland are lost to development every minute in the United States. We're fighting back.
