April workday, with major projects underway in the Panhandle


At our workday in the Panhandle on Saturday, April 13, volunteers from the community worked together on one of our most important ongoing projects: caring for the trees in the park. We removed weeds from around the trees so that the park workers can maintain a safe distance from the trees while mowing the park's grassy meadows. 

As part of the morning's work, we also performed some ongoing maintenance work in the rain garden, removing some of the weeds and trimming back some of the most aggressive growth. With the Panhandle Playground project having begun, a fence is now installed right at the very edge of the rain garden, allowing for the removal and eventual rebuilding of the pathway. 

A Groundbreaking event sponsored by Rec and Park and the San Francisco Parks Alliance is planned for tomorrow, Thursday, April 25, from 11 am to noon. All are welcome to attend, meet your neighbors and city officials, and learn more about the Panhandle Playground and other playground renovations.


Demolition of the playground looks complete


The irrigation project was also active on April 13, with some trenching around the southwest corner of Fell & Masonic.
