At Filoli we are dedicated to preserving and protecting the natural land around us. Through sustainability practices in our Garden and working with indigenous communities to honor the land, our hope is one day all people will honor nature, value unique experiences, and appreciate beauty in everyday life.

"Support Climate Resilience" is the theme for day 3 of California State Parks Week. Join us in learning about and supporting state parks and their partners’ efforts to ensure climate resilience across California’s State Park System. Did you know that forests, oceans, grasslands, and other ecosystems like estuaries throughout California’s public lands store huge amounts of carbon, making them some of the world’s most powerful tools in adapting to climate change? The pictured Tijuana Estuary is the largest coastal wetland in Southern California and it is located on the international border between the U.S. and Mexico. Learn more about estuaries and how Parks California and partners are coming together to protect them at https://lnkd.in/eenPxhsj. Find an event near you at castateparksweek.org to experience climate resilience in parks. Tell us what you learn in the comment section here! Tijuana Estuary with a white bird.
