We have now developed into a community of women who are shifting our relationship with money from a consumption-driven paradigm to one of giving, caring and ‘enough’ to co-create an economic future for humanity that sustains life on earth.  We do this by exploring our stories and beliefs around money, by continuing to educate and develop ourselves and by building community.  If you are interested …

Simply put, we love beef and support the overall health of our environment, but had yet to see a group that combined both areas into one group. Since the creator of the group lives in the Peninsula, she decided to create The San Mateo Organic Beef Meetup Group for those of us who want to continue being beef enthusiasts in a way that is more supportive of the environment. Do you thoroughly enjoy the consumption of beef and want to support the local sustainable agriculture movement? Then t …

We aim to help connect the dots.

If from the right sources, it can be totally carbon neutral. It is cheaper than gas or diesel.

Sharing stories over food is a tradition, something we all have done since we were able to recognize lights and sounds. Taken from a dictionary, the definition of "Food" is, a noun: "any nourishing substance that is eaten, drunk, or otherwise taken into the body to sustain life, provide energy, promote grow …
