Additional Information

“Conkling Farm was established by Daniel Conkling who arrived in Rensselaerville, NY from East Hampton, Long Island, around 1806. Tall hemlocks were cleared from much of the land and the hemlock bark was used for tanning by Daniel and his son David. The Conklings, and their Huyck and Eldridge descendents, ran or supported a dairy farm for many years. They also contributed to the business and cultural life of Rensselaerville. In the nineteenth century, Conklings operated one of the many grist mills on Ten Mile Creek, Rensselaerville, and, with a Scots partner, Francis Conkling Huyck started a successful woolen mill for felt production on the creek at the foot of the spectacular falls. Conkling Hall community center, The E. N. Huyck Preserve and Biologic Research Station, and The Rensselaerville Institute are among the family’s cultural legacies. Today, Conkling Farm is operated by Roswell Eldridge, a friend of the environment, retired US public health physician and direct descendent of Daniel Conkling. The farm has been free of chemical pesticides and fertilizers for 60 years.’’ http://hilltowns.org/HHAWIKI/index.php?title=Rensselaerville_-_Conkling_Farm_-_Roswell_Eldridge
