About Us
The Tomhannock Rural Land Campaign is an effort to preserve natural areas and farms around the Tomhannock Reservoir, which is the water supply for more than half the people in Rensselaer County. The campaign is a partnership of two organizations:
Hudson Taconic Lands
We work with the community to conserve the lands and waters of the Rensselaer County region, nurturing connections with nature for the people who live, work, and play here.
Agricultural Stewardship Association
The Agricultural Stewardship Association is a nonprofit, community-supported land conservancy dedicated to protecting local farmland from encroaching development. Since our founding in 1990, we have helped conserve 22,328 acres on 133 properties in Washington and Rensselaer counties in the Upper Hudson River Valley. Land conserved for agricultural purposes can never be used for housing developments or commercial development.
