About the Town

The Town of Poestenkill. established in 1848, is a vital and prosperous community that is rural by choice. We, as residents of the Town, have pledged to protect its rich rural heritage and assets, as well as its scenic beauty.

We have a hamlet comprised of a growing mix of small locally-owned businesses, stores, professional services and community facilities. We are equally proud of our farms, many of which have continued to be family farms, passed down through generations
