Redwood Grove is a beautiful 5.7-acre park located on a stretch of Adobe Creek in the heart of Los Altos. The park’s ecosystem is seriously degraded, overgrown with invasive plants such as Algerian Ivy, and sections of the creek bank are badly eroded.
Acterra’s goal is to restore the park’s ecosystem to health. As is the case with our restoration work at Palo Alto’s Pearson-Arastradero Preserve and in the San Francisquito Creek watershed, we will deploy hundreds of local volunteers – youth and adults – to spearhead the habitat restoration process.
Volunteers from the community will be used to remove invasive plants, install native plants from Acterra’s Native Plant Nursery, install a demonstration garden, and create habitat – such as bird houses and brush piles - for native wildlife.
In the process of restoring Redwood Grove to health, Acterra’s staff will educate participating youth and adults about the park’s wildlife and ecosystem. For further information about this project, contact Junko Bryant, Redwood Grove Project Director, at
