Continue down and away from the bridge view. You'll descend another set of stairs, and then meander on a trail (next photo) with lush vegetation on either side.

Presidio Sustainability

The Presidio Trust endeavors to make the park and the businesses within the park, environmentally-sustainable entities.

When you visit Crissy Field Center, you'll find recycled building materials and compostable papers and dishes.

Among the measures taken throughout the natural areas of the Presidio are Integrated Pest Management (reducing reliance on chemical pesticides), water conservation, and compost used throughout the Presidio.

Read more about the Presidio's ecological projects and goals at the Presidio Trust website:

You can also learn about Integrated Pest Management (IPM) from Berkeley's Bio-Integral Resource Center. BIRC is a non-profit organization specializing in IPM solutions.
