  • Sometimes I just start a trail and see where it leads me.” David Gaskell, Kinderhook Creek Nature Preserve, Nassau
  • I believe in what you are doing. It’s a really good cause. I think it is important to sustain the natural areas that are left for the future generations of people and wildlife. I believe in sustainability, the long road, and that’s what Rensselaer Land Trust’s work is all about.” Sean Rowe, volunteer and member.
  • This property runs along the Kinderhook creek and is gorgeous any time of the year. Those who visit will think they are out in the Rockies. My family is happy to put this beautiful location into the Rensselaer Land Trust so that others may enjoy its many advantages in perpetuity.” Ken York, Kinderhook Creek Nature Preserve, Nassau.
  • I have always loved the natural world and rarely a day goes by these days when I do not walk at least two miles in the woods. As a commercial appraiser I saw firsthand the pressures that development places upon the ecology and aesthetics of the landscapes that surround us. I realized that, without some type of intervention, this trend is a one way street. Strategic protection of land is one of the best legacies we can leave for future generations.” Paul Schroeder, volunteer and member.
