About the Agricultural Stewardship Association
Since 1990, the Agricultural Stewardship Association (ASA) has worked to protect the farmlands, forests, and agricultural landscape of this area for future generations. In fact, they’ve managed to conserve over 30,000 acres on 170 properties across Washington and Rensselaer counties!
For over 20 years, this exhibition has served as the ASA’s largest fundraising event of the year, with 50% of every purchase going to their organization. Learn more about their mission and how to support it today!
