I love living in the Hudson Valley because of the strong connection between agriculture and conservation that's made possible by the people who live here and love to call this place home.
Being out in nature is so important because it builds a connection to the mind and body.
The trails that Scenic Hudson has maintained and has saved from development over the years, during COVID especially, have become a solace for me.
It is important that we defend the Hudson Valley and all the wild habitats for our wild friends who depend on it every day for their home, their food, and their survival.
As John Muir said, "You can go into the forest to lose your mind and gain your soul." We need to protect these open spaces so everybody, ultimately, can use them.

I'm from New York City and I love coming up here to the Hudson Valley just to get out of the city and get some fresh air. It just has a lot of identity.
The Hudson Valley should be protected because we all need art, history, and nature in our lives, and clean air, clean water, trees.

It’s not just a place to live — it’s a home.
The biodiversity of the area requires that river to remain clean and livable for all the flora and fauna that rely on the Hudson River.
It is up to us, and up to everyone, to conserve it, to preserve it. And everyone should be a part of it.
The Hudson Valley is a place where agriculture and wilderness have found a place to coexist.
I love the Hudson Valley because it's a bountiful place in terms of the art, the people, the beauty....Nature is what really enables that bounty.

Stepping up to ensure this beautiful place endures for future generations.
As the seasons get more and more extreme, I think it gets really hard on all of our bodies and all of the plants and animals. So we really need to protect the Hudson Valley and keep it a place that we can live in harmony with nature.
The Hudson Valley is an open classroom for me where I get to learn about the ecosystem while being able to do a lot of outdoor activities. We need to be able to share this with generations to come and to protect the fragile ecosystem we call home.
