Together with the National Park Service, and with the help of donors, volunteers, and community partners, the Parks Conservancy removed 65 years’ worth of overgrown vegetation, collected and disposed over 2,000 pounds of trash, and replanted 8,000 native plants. See the difference for yourself using interactive sliders.

More than 400 images are on view outdoors in the Presidio at four locations. The selections, picked by distinguished creators and community leaders, are from everyday park goers, kids, and even professional photographers. The exhibition captures the beauty of the great outdoors and the joy that time in nature can bring.
