Tour an inspiring private residence in Claverack whose owners have spent the last decade converting lawn to native wildflowers and grasses; transforming an agricultural pond into a vibrant wildlife paradise; and restoring forest understory by removing invasive species and managing deer.

The eight-acre property is bursting with life and provides an incredible example of how anyone can create habitat in their own backyard using accessible practices like hand-weeding, hand-seeding and small-scale controlled burning. We’ll meander through meadows, watch dragonflies hunting over the pond, and go home with loads of practical ideas and tools for impactful ecological action here in the Hudson Valley. 

 Location: This tour will take place at a private residence in Claverack (Columbia County). Address provided upon registration.
