The Mendon Foundation exists, first and foremost, to preserve open spaces throughout the Town of Mendon by serving as a land trust. We are a member of the Land Trust Alliance (LTA), and we have a goal of being accredited by the LTA in the future. All of the locations where you can experience the legacy of open spaces provided by the Mendon Foundation are highlighted below. For a map of our properties, including our work on Monroe County’s Lehigh Valley Trail, please download our map and brochure.
Primary entry points for all properties are denoted with a yellow dot ().
