If you are vacationing in the Adirondacks next month please take some time to help the Boon family clean-up the Fulton Chain of Lakes watershed. Their @ChainMaintain event is environmental stewardship at its finest. A family effort. A community effort. An impactful effort.

Happy Earth Day! We'd like to thank the 100+ volunteers who joined us on Saturday for our annual earth month clean up! Thanks to you, we were able to remove thousands of pounds of trash and prevent it from entering the river.

On this #WorldBeeDay we recognize how #bees are an important part of the natural environment but sometimes we take them for granted. Maybe it’s because we don’t realise how important they really are? So let’s save the bees by planting buzz-worthy gardens!🪻🌺🌼🐝

#Wildlife in #NewYork can be helped, but we need two bills to move in the state legislature. Please take a moment to tell @DeborahJGlick and @SenatorHarckham that our wild animals are important p2a.co/AsHPv3U
