Wildflower Hike: February 23rd 2020 9:30am - 12:30pm

San Bruno Mountain Wildflower walk with Wildfires to Wildflowers

There is a $6.00 parking fee.

We will be hiking Saddle Trail, which is 2.5 miles long, and mostly flat. We’ll go into the history of the mountain, and how grassroots advocacy saved it. We’ll explore possible ecosystem market opportunities as a funding mechanism for legislators, encouraging markets to fund restoration work, and in return get credits for offsetting emissions.

Sign up below and you will be sent a confirmation email with more details within a few days.

Topics covered in Wildfires to Wildflowers hikes vary, but include:

  • Plant identification and ethnobotanical uses

  • The habitat restoration cycle from seed to site

  • How restoring habitat sequesters carbon

  • The Wildfires to Wildflowers movement in the larger cultural and political context

Limited to 20 hikers

Free - though donations gladly accepted and will be requested at end of hike.

Natives Blooming in Dogpatch

Thanks to wonderful winter rain and caring gardeners, CA native plants at Woods mini-park Native Plant Garden are enjoying early spring weather and showing their lovely side. (22nd St. between Indiana St. and Minnesota St.)

Late winter/early spring brings out our CA Native Plants at Scott School Sidewalk Gardens. Several species are blooming now. (Tennessee St and Minnesota St just north of 22nd St.)
