This Friday, from 6-9 pm, is our annual Hayes Valley Block party. It’s the most anticipated Hayes Valley event of the year. This year is the first in our new location. We will be featuring a craft table with all kinds of goodies to make your own Christmas ornaments. Friends from My Dutch Bike will be bringing some of their beautiful bicycles to share and Scuba will be bringing some of their amazing artwork to sell. I bought several of their pieces last year as gifts. This is a really fun family event. 

Only two days until WCG and we want to make sure you make it. So here is some incentive…

Come keep us company, see the sights and partake in celebrating all of our efforts, great and small, at finding a more sustainable way of living and making choices that can have a positive impact on our future. We will be on the right when you enter the Herbst Pavilion (number 209).
