To our dear Francisco Park Community,
If you’ve been to the park recently, you may have noticed that the goats are back on the upper hillside for their annual feast. We are thrilled that they are trimming back for us a year’s worth of blackberries, fennel, and poison oak. The goats will be on site for another week or two, if you want to enjoy a good laugh as they bleat and headbutt and make good trouble. Please do not feed or pet the goats because you might get poison oak from their hairs.
Below the hillside, Francisco Park is seeking volunteers to help us reset the stones in the ditch next to Bruce’s Stairs to prepare for the rainy season, attach new growth on grapevines to the fence, and weed the common space in the community garden. Please consider joining fellow park lovers and neighbors for our Volunteer Gardening Day this Saturday, September 20 from 10am – 12noon. Sign up: http://www.franciscopark.
We are thrilled to announce that our pilot Storytime in the Park was such a hit that we have 2 additional dates planned for the season – Fridays, September 26 and October 24 from 10:30-11:15 a.m. Please help us spread the word to neighborhood families! Suggested donation: $10+ (Free for Stewards!)
Finally, on Sunday, September 28 at 10 a.m., yoga returns to Francisco Park with Love Story Yoga‘s instructor, Diane Lê Strain. All ages and levels are welcome. Bring your own yoga mat. Suggested donation: $10+ (Free for Stewards!)
See you at the Park,
Francisco Park Conservancy
