What began as a small group of neighbors united by their love of parks has grown into a vibrant, community-driven organization. Today, we’re powered by a skilled staff team, an expanding summer Youth Green Team, and a remarkable network of over 1,000 dedicated volunteers who give their time and energy every year.
