What we’re about
The California Native Plant Society is a statewide non-profit organization of amateurs and professionals. Our goals are to increase understanding of California’s native flora and to preserve this rich natural heritage for future generations. The Yerba Buena Chapter encompasses San Francisco and northern San Mateo Counties and is named for the tiny fragrant mint Satureja douglasii found in this area.
Chapter Activities are as diverse as our membership and range from conservation and habitat restoration to native plant gardening, hiking and photography.

Saturday 12/9/23 from 10-1, there will be a work day at the Lakeview-Ashton Minipark in conjunction with SF Rec & Park and Lakeview Nature Stewards. We love this bright little gem of a park, a longtime project of Jake Sigg's, with good remnant coastal bluff habit and so carry on work to preserve it.
We will be planting more perennials on the lower slopes to build up more habitat for the local fauna. There will also be weeding, litter pick up and fun. Please bring a friend or 3. Link to sign up below.
