Brooks Park is an amazing place! I've been a member of the community garden for over two years now and have gotten tremendous enjoyment from it. It's terrific to see all the ways it's an asset to the neighborhood. If you come up here, Peter will give you the grand tour! It's impressive how much has been done in a relatively small place.
Mange tak, Peter!

Very inspiring to hear about the passion and the care that this project cultivates. What if every neighborhood had a place like this? Imagine the community and the connection to the natural world, the joy and celebration in our own backyards.
Love the video thanks for making it.--Mary Jo

I grew up on Victoria st and ironically my last name is BROOKS, I'm not kidding, my father used to tell me that this was his park and all the other kids had to ask him first to play there. I started telling my daughter the same story. "The mountain" was the coolest place to play hide and seek when I was a kid, now many other kids can enjoy the cool new activities.
Thanks for helping to keep a piece of our childhood preserved.

I was raised on Victoria St. I remember how bad this park became and I now tell my daughter that it is "her" park. Our last name is Brooks and my parents started the neighborhood watch program in the late 70's early 80's on Victoria St. Thanks for giving my a place to bring my daughters, I can safely share my childhoos stories and hopefuly let them build thier own in Brooks Park. If you haven't ran down the Ivy on the west side of the mountian, you haven't lived fully in Ingleside.

Brooks Park and Peter are SF treasures!!! The new artworks are awesome -- SF needs more community art and there is no better place than parks like Brooks. Keep up the good work Peter.
