PEOPLE & PARTNERS

The Somers Land Trust is coordinated by a volunteer Board of Directors and committee heads.  Meet us at the members meeting in January (or other announced date),

usually at the Elephant Hotel – the Somers Town House.

Or you can find us out on the trails at Rhinoceros Creek Reservation.
