Bit by bit, the rehabbing of this forgotten corner of SF is taking shape, making it beautiful and useable for all.

Met up with Jean (on the right), who has been leading the charge rehabbing Mayfair Dr behind Laurel Village. From weeding, recruiting neighbors to adopt plots, and working with the city to get water, so much progress has been made.

Amazing things happen when we take care of SF.
