Guardians

of the Redwoods

Preserving Today, Protecting Tomorrow.

Our Mission Statement

Our mission is to foster understanding, enjoyment, and stewardship by providing support to our partner agencies – the National Park Service, California State Parks, Bureau of Land Management, and the U.S. Forest Service – who are entrusted with the care of northern California’s public lands.

Our Legacy and Impact

Redwood Parks Conservancy (RPC) has been a guardian of northern California’s majestic redwoods and public lands since 2011, emerging from a rich heritage of conservation and stewardship. In partnership with key agencies, we’ve spearheaded crucial projects like the Grove of Titans and the California Condor Restoration, enhancing visitor experiences and educating generations. Our collaborative efforts have made significant strides in preserving these natural wonders, with every donation, volunteer effort, and store purchase directly contributing to the protection and enjoyment of these cherished landscapes. Join us in our ongoing mission to safeguard and celebrate these irreplaceable natural treasures for future generations.
