The Delaware Highlands Conservancy works with landowners throughout the Upper Delaware River region to conserve our natural and cultural heritage. If you have a working forest, a farm, an expanse of wetlands, or other property you want to conserve, we can help you. We work with landowners in Sullivan and Delaware Counties in New York State, and in Wayne and Pike Counties in Pennsylvania.

Our primary mission is to conserve the forests, farms and waters of the Upper Delaware River region by acquiring conservation easements, or land, from willing landowners.

The Conservancy has two offices, one in Hawley, PA and one in Sullivan County, NY.  We do our important work with an extremely dedicated but minimally paid staff supported mainly through the generous contributions of our members.  The heavy lifting is done by our citizen volunteers.  Our citizen volunteers directly participate in the projects, events, and specific conservation activities vital to sustaining our ecological health and rural quality of life.
