Third Thursday Environmental Series

A program of free, online events. Each month—every third Thursday—the series presents a free, online program on an environmental topic of general interest to residents of the Rondout Valley. The series is produced in collaboration with Rochester, Gardiner, Marbletown, Rosendale and Olive Environmental Conservation Commissions (ECC’s). Its mission is to engage, inform, and inspire.

To join these events on Zoom, click here.  To be put on our mailing list or be a speaker, send an email to

The Town of Rochester Environmental Commission is a group of citizens who volunteer their time, are sworn in by the town and meet once a month to discuss and help implement ways to enhance and protect the natural resources of the Town of Rochester and to find ways of helping to educate and protect its citizens from hazards to the environment. It can conduct research at the request of the Town Board or a citizen on topics pertaining to the safety or enhancement of the environment and can react to environmental issues that face the town, county, state and world.

The Commission is in place to alert and educate the community at large on as many issues affecting the environment as are made known to the Commission via newsletters, the Town of Rochester website, the media and certain events. All meetings are open to the public and occur once a month at the Town of Rochester Community Center.

If you are interested in volunteering or joining the ECC send an email to: ecc@townofrochester.ny.gov
