Restoring this landscape involves removing non-native invasive plants and weeds (i.e., mustard, thistle, fennel and ox tongue) followed-up by planting locally sourced coastal native plants (i.e., yarrow, bee plant, coast buckwheat, seaside daisy and others) to maintain, increase and sustain biodiversity, and to stabilize hillside slopes. Three endangered species are found near this area: the San Francisco garter snake, the San Bruno elfin butterfly, and the California red-legged frog, and they need a native habitat to survive. Habitat restoration is critical for preserving habitat for these endangered species.
