Houses on the Lands: Wallkill Valley Land Trust's 7th Annual Historic House Tour
This year's focus on the Town of New Paltz coincides with the year-long celebration our 30th Anniversary. The closing reception will be held at a private farm on the Land Trusts first easement.
The tour will explore the fascinating legacy of New Paltzs Huguenots and their expansion northward along the eastern banks of the Wallkill River to Bontecoe on the Esopus border. The Patentees - as the first dozen settlers were called built their houses on the terrace above the Wallkill River where vistas sweep west to the Shawangunk Mountains. Their descendants moved beyond New Paltz to cultivate the rich alluvial soil of the floodplain.
