News

We've changed our name. The Rensselaer-Taconic Land Conservancy is now the Rensselaer Land Trust.

We are still working on the 2008 schedule of outings, but the first two have been announced. There is a waterfall walk scheduled for Sunday, April 20, and a wildflower walk in Mattison Hollow on May 3. Click here for more information. The remainder of the outings schedule will be announced shortly.

The RLT has purchased lands along the Hoosic River that is ¾ mile long near Eagle Bridge on the Rensselaer County side consisting of approximately 39 acres of agricultural lands. The Department of Environmental Conservation plans to install a boat and fishing access at one end of the property to be opened in the Fall of 2008.
