Friends Associations and Groups

Redwood Parks Conservancy’s mission is to foster understanding, enjoyment, and stewardship by providing support to our partner agencies – the National Park Service, California State Parks, Bureau of Land Management, and the U.S. Forest Service – who are entrusted with the care of northern California’s public lands.  

Save The Redwoods League, since 1918, has protected and restored California redwood forests and connected people with their peace and beauty so these wonders of the natural world flourish. The League purchases redwood forests and the surrounding lands needed to nurture them; regenerate logged forests so they become spectacular havens for future generations; study how to best protect and restore these global treasures; and introduce people to these magical places.
