Sonoma Mountain Preservation (SMP) has been advocating for the mountain since 1993.
Our mission is to preserve Sonoma Mountain’s scenic, agricultural, and natural resources by cultivating a sense of place, engaging people with the landscape, and inspiring them to become mountain stewards. We seek to:
Expand recreational opportunities on the mountain
Provide a forum for constructive discussion of issues relating to the mountain
Represent the interests of the mountain before public and private agencies and organizations
Support and encourage the development of multi-use trails for low-impact access to the mountain
Stimulate interest among county residents in supporting all these goals.
The Wonders of Sonoma Mountain
See three different perspectives on Sonoma mountain from local non-profits—Sonoma Mountain Preservation, Jack London State Historic Park, and Sonoma Land Trust. Thanks to Glen Ellen Forum for inviting this focus at their monthly meeting.
SMP consists of an all-volunteer board of directors, a four-member executive committee, and a broad constituency of mountain supporters. Visitors to board meetings are welcome If you are interested in joining a meeting, please contact us.
