For the past 30 years the Columbia Land Conservancy, a nonprofit organization that relies on charitable support, has worked with private landowners, businesses, government agencies and partners to preserve the county's
vibrant rural character.
Among her priorities are grant - funded projects that link youth and seniors; keeping taxes low; a more
vibrant Main Street, with art galleries and other producing businesses; an enhanced atmosphere of respect within town government; and keeping the
rural character of Gardiner intact.
