It is Abundant
Rainbow Grocery, the best selection of organic produce in the Bay Area, bar none.

We are Community
East Bay Church of Religious Science is a unique and beautiful community doing so much good. We love getting down at Ashkenaz [Music and Dance Community Center] in Berkeley. And we can’t wait for Power to the Peaceful this September!

It is Delicious
Peña Pachamama in North Beach — this restaurant is a retreat to another world. They have live music Fridays and Saturdays, and now they have a raw selection on the menu!

It is Sublime
Favorite Bay Area experiences include the magical interplay between light and fog over Twin Peaks, and driving across the Golden Gate Bridge to our San Rafael café at sunrise.

We are Family
Sunday meals around our long wooden “Last Supper” table at our central kitchen have become a Gratitude family tradition.

It is Alive
The Mission is one of our favorite neighborhoods — we love the mix of Latino and bohemian. Artsy, sunny and young, in the Mission, life is happening on the streets. And you can’t beat local haunts like Ritual Coffee and Lost Weekend Video.

We are Home…
…In San Francisco, the most awakened and conscious city we’ve ever experienced. The longtime City of Acceptance, San Francisco is now becoming the City of Community.
