Party People

You may know that some friends and family threw a little party this weekend (all weekend, really) in North Park, South Park and Golden Hill. Everyone had a really great time, and one of the biggest reasons was because of all the local independent businesses that chipped in, in some way, to help make it fun for everyone. Including:

Sitting In A Tree – event design/coordination
Roots Kind Food – catering
MIHO Gastrotruck – catering
Velo Cult – event hosting
The Station – event hosting
North Park Native Plants – landscaping
DJ Claire – Smooth soul, R&B and yacht rock sounds that get a party started

I’m surely forgetting some, too, I’ll add them as I’m reminded.

The next time you’re having an event, consider keeping it as local as possible – the talent and love in this neighborhood is amazing. Thanks to everyone who participated in any way, it was awesome.

PS On a less immediately local slant, as part of the weekend, we also patronized the Artisan Table at A.R. Valentien up north a bit, and that was just superb, too. And thankfully we know such great beverage makers like Stone and Heidrun and Green Flash, ’cause great booze really makes a great party.
