Wednesdays & Saturdays, 1 PM - 4 PM

Come out and join us! 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).
