🚌 For many Bay Area youth, getting to parks isn’t as simple as hopping in the car. Transportation is often the biggest barrier between young people and the redwoods, waterways, and open spaces in their own backyard.

🏞️ With your support, the Regional Parks Foundation helps remove that barrier—funding bus transportation, camp scholarships, and expert naturalists who guide young participants every step of the way. 🥾

🌿 Today’s “Management for Resilient Vegetation” seminar offered clear insight into the many vegetation management efforts on the horizon and already underway across the East Bay Regional Parks. The day ended with three field trips showcasing the exciting vegetation work happening in the parks.

We’re proud to partner with the East Bay Regional Park District to advance vegetation management projects and best practices in the parks. From mitigating regional wildfire risk to strengthening biodiversity and native plant populations, vegetation management is crucial to ensuring our parks are safe, healthy, and vibrant for all. ✨

☀️ Shout-out to REI and AllTrails for co-hosting a Better Trails Club volunteer clean-up event with the East Bay Regional Park District on April 18 at Brickyard Cove! BIG THANKS to the nearly 60 volunteers who showed up to support the effort, and to community partner Back To Earth for kicking off the day with a moment of intention-setting and thanksgiving for Earth. 🌎

We were honored and grateful to join our community members and partners for another fun and impactful day in the parks! 🙌 ♻️
