October 16th Planting Day a Tremendous Success

On October 16th,  volunteers from the local community, and SF Park & Recreation planted approximately 600 native & sustainable plants on the McKinley Square hillside.

This is part of a multi planting effort to push out non-native invasive species (such as the fox tail weed)  which are unsafe for dogs, and replace with native plants that will help the local butterflies, and other insects, some of which are endangered.

Lunch was sponsored by Goat Hill Pizza & Chiotras Grocery.   Thank You to everyone who made this possible.


Every flag or pot you see is a new plant planted on Oct 16.
