Helderberg Hilltowns Association

The second hilltowns regional historical summit was held on Saturday to discuss and plan events that would promote history in the region, from Middleburgh to Duanesburg to New Scotland. At the meeting, it was decided to pursue setting up events and exhibits centering around local industry, alcohol production, and the Prohibition Era.

Runners took to the streets in Knox last Saturday, March 19, for the fifth annual Sap Run. The prize for winners? a pint of maple syrup.

Visitors to the Hilltowns for the past two weekends have sopped up the season as the muddy month of March is also when the sap runs and syrup producers start their boilers.

The Helderberg Hilltowns Association would like to thank all those who lent their support last weekend for the Fourth Annual 5k Sap Run.  

To the Editor:

Spring has arrived in the Hilltowns. The red-winged blackbirds are calling, and the sap is running. This Saturday, March 21, marks the fourth annual 5K Sap Run in Knox, coordinated by Helderberg Hilltowns Association. We expect approximately 150 runners of all ages to participate.

To the Editor:

The Helderberg Hilltowns Association has a remedy for your wintertime blahs: pick-your-own blueberries, fresh tomatoes and basil, or handcrafted rustic bread. It’s CSA (community supported agriculture) season, a time to support local agriculture by buying a share in a farm’s food production.
