Huyck News
Donate to the Annual Fund Today!
As the shortest days of the year approach, we are reflecting on the continued hope we have for the future. The natural world, including all that the Huyck Preserve protects, is facing unprecedented challenges. We are committed to making a difference through our conservation, education, and scientific work and through the personal connections our visitors create with nature.
Our hope is rooted in friends and supporters like you, and we come together for the good of this place. Our collective power and the community we build will only strengthen what we can accomplish.

Connecting people to nature through conservation, education, research, and recreation since 1931!
Our mission is to protect the natural beauty of the Rensselaerville Falls, the watershed of Lake Myosotis and surrounding lands, to conduct long-term research on natural systems as part of a global effort to understand and preserve the Earth's biodiversity, and to increase appreciation of this effort through innovative, field-based educational programs for students, teachers and the community."
