We’re in this together,
for the future

We invite you to be a leader of land conservation and join a growing circle of members who contribute $1,000 or more annually to conservation. 

 

Woods & Water Heritage Circle members receive an Early-Access Honorary Committee invitation to our annual Gala and an invitation to a members-only dinner held at Historic Eastfield Village.
This special, annual gathering is a small token of our deep gratitude for your contributions to community conservation in Rensselaer County.

How To Join

If your annual gifts to conservation are $1,000 or more you are automatically a member of the Woods & Water Heritage Circle.

​

Want to learn more? Reach out to Jim Bonesteel at 518-712-9211 or jim@rensselaerplateau.org or Bay Habshey at bay@rensselaerplateau.org

“I believe that the Capital Region is rising to the next level of cultural and economic success. That is why I support conservation on the Rensselaer Plateau — our natural areas are essential to healthy and successful communities.”
