Saturdays, 9:30 AM - 12:30 PM 

Come join the restoration efforts of the Green Team! The Fort Funston Nursery, one of the five native plant nurseries in the Golden Gate National Parks, grows an impressive 25,000 plants a year. This is largely due to our dedicated volunteer base. By working at Fort Funston, our volunteers participate in a variety of activities, including seed collection, propagation, transplanting, pruning, weeding, and outplanting.
