Nature-focused Businesses

Rooted SF is a casual group of businesses dedicated to helping SF residents enjoy, benefit from, and appreciate our natural surroundings even though we’re in one of the densest cities in the country. We all offer different services and have different knowledge sets but the one thing we have in common is an understanding of the joy that nature can bring and it’s importance for our well-being.

If you’re a resident in need of services like gardening, landscaping, garden instruction, education, event planning, etc or if you’re a journalist in need of information, please scan the businesses below to contact individual companies that may be able to assist you.

This list is organized in rotating alphabetical order to give all the businesses some top-of-the-page love. For a list of these businesses organized by the service they offer (such as landscape installation, garden maintenance, pollinator habitat design, etc) please check out our page on service categories below:
