This meeting will include Field Horne’s talk, “The Luther Forest: Five Generations.” Horne will share the amazing story of Tommy Luther, who began with a hotel on the east side of Saratoga Lake and reforesting failed farms in the sandy soil of Malta and Stillwater. By the 1930s, Luther owned the largest private experimental forest in New York State. His granddaughter and later generations worked diligently to adapt to changing circumstances, developing housing beginning in 1979, and creating a successful water system. Free and open to the public.
