Our mission is to preserve Edgewood County Park and Natural Preserve for the human, plant, and animal generations to come.
The FRIENDS OF EDGEWOOD is a non-profit organization of people from the community surrounding Edgewood (mostly San Mateo and Santa Clara counties) who are interested in preserving, protecting, and restoring Edgewood's natural resources. All of our members volunteer their time, energy, and resources because of their appreciation for Edgewood.
In July 1993, the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors declared Edgewood a Natural Preserve, permanently laying to rest a proposal to build a golf course there. In October of that year, FoE commemorated its inauguration at an Edgewood celebration attended by County Supervisors and other high-ranking County government and community officials.
From those beginnings, the FRIENDS has grown in membership as well as in stature within the community. Numbering some 200 families among its dues-paying members, the organization was granted non-profit corporate status in November 1997.
