The power of place helps to define the Heritage Area theme of Culture and Community.
The expanses of open land, picturesque barns and modest granite buildings speak to the once-rural quality of the area. These features now reflect how the people once relied on local materials and building techniques,and on each other to survive in a sparsly populated land.
While many of these areas are not open to the public, they can still be experienced especially from the PATH trail system.
