The Presidio Native Plant Nursery grows nearly 60,000 plants each year and we need your help! As a volunteer you will learn how to grow and care for native plants, as well as be a part of a thriving community-based restoration program working to restore San Francisco's National Park. Activities include transplanting seedlings, pruning, composting, seed collecting, and outplanting (winter only).

Individuals and Families: Register for this program. Drop-in individuals are welcome.

Groups: Schedule a private program for groups of 5 or more. Contact us if you would like to register a group. Group projects must be confirmed in advance.
