About Us

Mission: To sustain and enhance the Hudson Valley’s inspirational beauty and health for generations to come.

Hudson Valley’s Largest Environmental Organization

Founded in 1963 to save iconic Storm King Mountain from a destructive industrial project, Scenic Hudson is credited with launching the modern grassroots environmental movement. Today, with more than 25,000 ardent supporters, we are the largest environmental group in the region.

As we respond to urgent, unprecedented threats to the health of the region’s communities, lands, air, and waters, we remain committed to making the Hudson Valley a great place to live, work, and play by protecting and enhancing the region’s great assets — beautiful open spaces, working farms, and historic cities and town centers.
