Autumn Acorns by Patricia Overmoyer Our Mission: To protect the habitat, open space, and farmland of the Genesee Valley region.

Through Genesee Valley Conservancy, the community has protected 20,600 acres of unique habitats, productive farmland, and scenic open space in the Genesee Valley since 1990.

#GeneseeValley100 I am thrilled to present our second iteration of the Genesee Valley 100.

Last year, we presented 100 original paintings inspired by the Genesee Valley. This year, we present 100 photographs taken in the Genesee Valley.

This collection of photographs, from 100 photographers, told only that their image must be taken in the Genesee Valley, represents the diverse landscape found here.

With this project, we hope to propel appreciation and conservation of the Genesee Valley forward. Clean air, water, and a vibrant agricultural economy all depend on protecting the land.

For their support of the Genesee Valley 100, special thanks to: Pilar McKay, Tony Jones, Ryan Fitzsimmons and Karyn Clark from Silver Lake Brewing Project Amy Woodhouse from Hill Top Printing Jim Mott Jerry Alonzo Trisha Koomen Page 31 Providing natural climate solutions in changing times.

Preserving Natural Resources The conservation easement on the Wheeler Gully Research Reserve allowed private landowners to protect this 400 acre forest surrounding Jaycox Creek from development and continue natural water quality benefits, habitat, and forestry opportunities. The property is also used for formal research.

Improving Land Management The Genesee Valley Landowner Workshops provide landowners an opportunity learn about improving their land management practices: native species, invasive species threats, improving timber stands, and other best practices for our landscape.

Restoring Damaged Landscapes Re-establishing wetlands along an project site will capture storm water and naturally filter out chemicals and sediment before it enters the creek, a public drinking water source and trout stream. Natural filtration reduces the time and cost of treating and filtering water by municipalities.
