Our History

In 2021, a small group of concerned citizens saved the "Little House" on Wainscott Hollow Road and, seeing the need for energetic preservation work to counter increasing threats to the unique historic and scenic character of Wainscott, the charitable organization was founded to protect and preserve Wainscott's heritage.
