Committee for Green Foothills is working for you! Through grass-roots activism, education, and advocacy, we work to protect and preserve the hills, forests, creeks, wetlands, and coastal lands of the San Francisco Peninsula.

Since 1962, the Committee has played a vital role in protecting much of the open space and natural beauty we now treasure. 

We invite you to learn more about our work, to take action, and to support Committee for Green Foothills so that we can continue to safequard our fragile Peninsula environment for future generations. Join us — we need your help.
