On Monday, June 16, 2025, Mohonk Preserve gathered to mark the official kickoff of restoration of the historic Brook Farmhouse with donors, neighbors, partners, supporters, staff and volunteers.

“Today, we stand at the intersection of history and the future,” Mohonk Preserve President and CEO Kevin Case noted in his opening remarks. “The Brook Farmhouse is more than just a structure – it’s a foundation for the important work ahead. This project is a concrete step in ensuring that Mohonk Preserve remains a leader in understanding environmental change and informing how we respond to it.”

The farmhouse is being repurposed and renovated to be the new home of Mohonk Preserve’s Conservation and Land Protection Programs.
