It was created in 1993 by The Nature Conservancy. They purchased {{convert|170|acre|ha}} of land on the Neversink River and created the Neversink Preserve in order to protect the newly discovered and federally endangered species of mussel, the dwarf wedge mussel.[2] Over time they have purchased more land so that the Neversink Preserve covers {{convert|550|acre|ha}}. Theodore Gordon, considered the father of modern American fly-fishing, perfected his dry-fly techniques here in the 19th century. Nearly 15 million people rely on the waters of the Delaware River Basin for drinking water and industrial use making the Neversink Preserve a top priority of The Nature Conservancy.[3] FloraTrees
