The Hastings Conservation Commission partnered with NYS DEC's Trees for Tribs program on this riparian restoration project. Boutillier's Brook begins just above Ravensdale Road and empties into the Saw Mill River at Exit 12 on the SMR Parkway. Volunteers from all over Hastings prepped the area and have planted about a thousand shrubs and trees in five grant cycles. Volunteers are helping maintain this site - you're invited! Contact the Conservation Commission to help: conservationcommission@hohny.gov.

The Vine Squad is a group of volunteers that works to preserve the health of our trees (and ourselves!) by removing invasive vines every winter. Invasive vines choke and smother trees - ultimately killing them. The Vine Squad hosts volunteer sessions twice a month November through March. All welcome!
