Mission Statement

Louisville’s Frederick Law Olmsted Parks are our health clubs and art studios, our outdoor classrooms, sports facilities and family retreats. They play a vital role in protecting the city’s health and well-being and they provide common ground for celebrating cultural diversity. The parks enhance Louisville’s quality of life.

The mission of Olmsted Parks Conservancy is to restore, enhance and forever protect Louisville’s Olmsted-designed parks and parkways, connecting nature and neighborhood while strengthening our community’s well-being.

I originally found the Olmsted Parks Conservancy through this website and began volunteering with them 2 years ago. Now, it has become one of my favorite things to do. I get such a sense of satisfaction after a volunteer event, especially when we have cleared an area of invasive plants with a big group. I've met many interesting people through volunteer events and have even made some friends in the process. I regularly bring people with me from our school's environmental organization and many of them love it too. This is a great way to spend some time outdoors with friends or family. They also have a variety of opportunities for many different interests! I love the Olmsted Parks Conservancy!
