    Biographical / Historical

    The Sempervirens Fund seeks to preserve and protect the natural character of California's Santa Cruz Mountains and to encourage appropriate public enjoyment of this environment. To achieve this they acquire suitable land in a working partnership with the State of California and other public and private agencies. These land acquisitions are both additions for Big Basin Redwoods and Castle Rock state parks, and links between parks and open spaces to provide an integrated parkland system. The group also fosters public participation in activities such as reforestation and trail projects.
