Get your hands dirty with SDPCA at our Sunset Cliffs Natural Park Habitat Restoration event! Join us for a morning of community and conservation in the breathtaking Sunset Cliffs Natural Park.

Nestled along Point Loma's western shoreline, Sunset Cliffs Natural Park offers stunning ocean views, dramatic cliffs, and a rich intertidal ecosystem teeming with life. Together, we'll roll up our sleeves to restore the native coastal sage scrub habitat and native plants.

No experience necessary—just bring your enthusiasm and some gardening gloves! Water, hats, and sunscreen are highly recommended; all other tools will be provided.

Meet us in the parking lot (entrance at Ladera St. and Cornish Dr.) and look for the Peace Corps banner. Hope to see you there!
