Have you met all of our new staff?
We’ve been busy getting to work on real conservation projects, and our new staff members are out in the community making local conservation possible…
Upper Susquehanna Connected Corridor Project
We’re embarking on a huge connective corridor project - it’s our region’s best chance to stay climate-resilient, scenic, and healthy! The time is now before development pressures become too strong. Protecting land secures basic human needs like air and water. Let’s be intentional about our future.
Six Conservation Areas Open to the Public
“I hike hundreds of miles in Otsego County to raise money for causes like outdoor recreation. I include Otsego Land Trust properties that are open to the public - Lordsland Conservancy, Fetterley Forest, Parslow Road Preserve, Greenough Preserve, Compton Bridge Preserve, and Brookwood Point Conservation Area. Each of these properties is unique in its geography - from lakeside historic gardens to beautiful bird habitats and trout streams. Otsego Land Trust’s public properties connect people to special natural spaces.”
Mohawk Valley Gives + Otsego Land Trust
Otsego Land Trust is participating in Mohawk Valley Gives, a 1-day region-wide fundraiser. Here are the details:
On Wednesday, September 20, 2023, the Community Foundation of Herkimer and Oneida Counties will host its second year of “Mohawk Valley Gives,” a 24-hour community-wide giving day to benefit nonprofit organizations serving the Mohawk Valley region.
During last year’s giving day, the community came together and raised more than $630,000 in 24 hours from 1,700+ unique donors and over 2,750+ individual donations. More than 90 prizes were awarded to participating nonprofits with the generous support of Mohawk Valley Gives sponsors, as well as members of the Community Foundation Board of Trustees.
