This is a 3 day event and conference. Our founder, Linda Hunter, will be presenting. Begins at Ferry Building in San Francisco on April 14th at noon
Sunday Streets Bayview/Dogpatch
April 15th, 2018 | 11:00am – 4:00pm
The Bayview and Dogpatch neighborhoods are connected by over 100 years of shared history – based on the heavy industry that formed the backbone of San Francisco’s infrastructure. This included a Bay that once teemed with wild oysters! Stop by The Wild Oyster Project's booth to say hello and play our Oyster Game! If you've never done Sunday Streets before, you're missing out. No cars!
Please share this with your friends and colleagues! We want everyone to love oysters as much as we do!
