Green Foothills is a non-profit organization based in Palo Alto, California, founded in 1962. It aims to protect local nature and farmland through advocacy, education, and grassroots action across San Mateo, Santa Clara, and San Benito Counties, engaging decision-makers to uphold or strengthen environmental policies and pursuing legal action when necessary. The organization works to safeguard the region’s coast, hillsides, forests, streams, bay lands, and farmland by connecting residents with land-use decisions and long-term policy goals.

It empowers community members to be effective advocates, assisting them in engaging with land-use decisions at the earliest stages. In 2025, Green Foothills partnered with the Amah Mutsun Tribal Band to oppose a mining permit, reflecting collaboration with local communities and tribes.
