Hu Kitchen

Jordan Brown and Jessica Karp’s goal when they opened Hu Kitchen in Manhattan wasn’t just to get by with healthier food, but to dig deeper into the quality and origin of the food they offer customers. They are inspired by organic food’s ability to heal the body, and want to help people “get back to human” and thrive. Their chocolates are vegan and paleo, using 70% stone ground dark chocolate, and fair trade cacao.

Keep an eye out for new Hu products as they expand into grain-free snacks!

Botnia

Justine Kahn’s local skincare line started in her backyard. An aesthetician, Justine always felt the facial products she used with her clients were missing something. Then she bought a home in Sausalito with a big, wild yard. Justine built an organic garden, knowing that the medicinal plants she grew could heal skin. She learned to make serums, and worked with a plant biologist who helped her find the perfect formulations…and Botnia was born!

Many ingredients in Botnia serums come from Justine’s Sausalito micro-farm.

Mindful Moments with Spring

Spring Smith leads an outdoor mindfulness session
Sunday, May 2 from 11 am – 12 noon (Rescheduled due to Rain)
In the Parade Ground meadow at Center Road in Fort Baker
RSVP to springcmt@yahoo.com

Things are constantly in flux, especially for our kids, and protocols keep changing. As we mark the one year anniversary of the pandemic, holistic practitioner Spring Smith is offering an outdoor session to help kids and their families slow down and connect through Mindfulness.

Mindfulness is the practice of paying attention in the moment without judgement. Regular practice allows our nervous system to rest and reset, helping to clear the mind or calm emotions. The sessions will be a chance for families to get outside and connect, while following social distancing and masking guidelines. Youth will learn skills to: • Manage emotions • Develop peer relationships • Develop empathy • Strengthen focus • Find the rhythm of nature

This is a free, child-centered event. Kids: Bring your families =) Meet in the meadow on Center Road in Fort Baker. For questions, and to RSVP, contact springcmt@yahoo.com

 

The course is facilitated by Spring Smith, Mindfulness Educator, holistic practitioner, and mom. Spring completed the training curriculum offered by Mindful Schools and has had extensive experience teaching mindfulness to youth and adults of all ages.
