Who We Are

Our mission is to foster environmental, cultural and natural history education; to promote outdoor recreation; to preserve biological diversity, and to conserve and manage natural resources in the Oneida Lake and Lake Ontario watersheds.

The GSC holds numerous events open to the public, showcasing nature in all four seasons. Including, the annual Spring and Fall migration festivals, where artisans and vendors from around Central New York come to showcase their wares and celebrate the arrival and departure of our migrant feathered friends.

What We Do

The Great Swamp Conservancy is a small organization with big impacts. For the past 26 years, the Great Swamp Conservancy has continued its mission through the dedicated, hard-working volunteers who passionately care for the natural world. The mission to curate a connection with nature for the surrounding communities have launched GSC into becoming a wonderful outlet for environmental education and recreation.
