EARTH DAY CELEBRATION!

Rockefeller State Park Preserve was created through several farsighted and generous gifts to the State of New York by the Rockefeller Family since 1983. It is designated as a “park-preserve” to highlight and protect its natural, historical, and cultural values. Its network of carriage trails wind through scenic forests, fields, and wetlands, which provide important habitat for native plants and wildlife.The Preserve Office and Gallery are open daily from 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM and are located at 125 Phelps Way, Pleasantville, N.Y. 10570.For more information on programs or volunteering opportunities at Rockefeller State Park Preserve, please stop by our Office, call 914-631-1470, or visit our website at www.rockefellerstateparkpreserve.org.Volunteering:   https://parks.ny.gov/documents/parks/RockefellerVolunteerOpportunities.pdfEvents: www.RockefellerStateParkPreserve.org/events
