The Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA) is offering this grant to support vital native plant restoration and foster extensive volunteer engagement. This grant is for the purpose of implementing comprehensive ecological restoration strategies within high-visibility impacted maintenance, cultural, and natural resource sites. Key actions include collecting native plant propagules, cultivating them in the GGNRA’s specialized native plant nursery, and systematically removing invasive plant species. A significant component of this initiative involves educating and empowering the community; annually, over 1600 students and 2,000 community volunteers participate in these activities. Through their involvement, participants gain a deeper understanding of national park resources, appreciate the importance of biodiversity, and contribute directly to the park’s ecological health.
