Description

The Railyard Park Conservancy is a nonprofit organization working in partnership with the City of Santa Fe in a unique care, conservation, and education effort to encourage residents to actively participate in our newest and largest city park and adjacent community plaza. The Conservancy was originally a program under the nonprofit Trust for Public Land. The Railyard Park Conservancy serves as the community 'friends of’ group of the Railyard Park + Plaza in Santa Fe.

The Railyard Stewards is modeled after such successful stewardship groups as New York’s Central Park Conservancy. The Stewards support the City of Santa Fe’s regular park maintenance by providing specialized care of the park’s ornamental gardens; coordinating extensive community outreach programs; and maintaining ongoing oversight of the park’s horticultural programs and design.
