2013 Map of Kinderhook

About this map

Kinderhook and the village of Valatie anchor this landscape where the Kinderhook Cr and Valatie Kill converge. The area retains a strong agricultural character, defined by extensive orchard operations such as Samascott Orchard, Golden Harvest Farms, and Yonder Fruit Farms. These commercial agricultural holdings, along with Brosen Farm And Greenhouses, suggest a landscape still deeply tied to New York's historic fruit-growing traditions. Residential patterns are concentrated around the water at Niverville on Kinderhook Lake and the smaller settlement of Muitzes Kill to the northwest. For those tracing local families, several established burial grounds are marked, including Prospect Hill Cem, Kinderhook Cem, and Valatie Cem. The presence of the Berkshire Spur W and various county routes illustrates the modern transportation network that facilitates the region's cider and produce economy.
