Located in the center of Hayes Valley on an old freeway offramp, Hayes Valley Farm is an education and research project creating urban agriculture in the center of San Francisco.

Please bring warm clothing you don’t mind getting a little dirty, tough shoes as there are some sharp objects on the site, a water bottle and a positive attitude. If you happen to have these, please bring snacks to share, wheel barrows, shovels, rakes, tarps, cardboard and heavy working gloves.

Rock Climbing

Register for Rock Climbing with Net Impact in San Francisco, CA on Eventbrite

Looking for an exciting way to spend your weekend?

Come join us on Saturday, May 1st from 4-6pm for an afternoon of casual fun and physical and mental challenge at one of the best Rock Climbing gyms in San Francisco, Mission Cliffs. We’ll go out for cheap food and beer afterwards in the Mission.

It should be a fun way to meet your fellow Net Impacters, learn more about them, and share a good laugh.

Don’t worry if you have never climbed. A few of us have our belay certification, so you can climb the higher wall (if you are daring!) with one of us, or you can play around on the fun boulder problems in the training area. Also, lessons are available if you want them, but we recommend just getting a feel for it first before you jump into a lesson. If you have your belay certification and are interested in helping teach others please email Mausoldj@gmail.com

Please RSVP by April 31st. Space is limited and spots will be given on a first-come, first served basis. This event is open to both members and not-yet members. If there is still space available, walk-ups are welcome on the date of the event.

Mission Cliffs charges $18 for a Day Pass and $6 for climbing gear so make sure to bring some money if you are interested in coming.

If you are traveling by BART or MUNI, Mission Cliffs is conveniently located 6 blocks from the BART exit at 16th and Mission St. and 3 blocks from the MUNI’s stop at Bryant and 19th st. on the #27 MUNI line.

Come join us on Saturday, July 25th for a day hike followed by a pub lunch at the beautiful Pelican Inn. We will start off at about 10am (please arrive by 9:45am) from the Tennessee Valley parking lot in Mill Valley (please carpool!). From there we will hike up and over the beautiful Marin Headlands over to Muir Beach and arrive at our lunch destination, The Pelican Inn – an old English pub that was transported over brick by brick from the motherland! After a lazy pub lunch we will meander back over the hill back to Tennessee Valley.

It should be a fun way to meet your fellow Net Impacters, learn more about them, and share a good laugh.

The hike is about 4 miles each way. Wear hiking attire and bring some warm clothes (maybe a good windbreaker) – it is often chilly in the headlands.

Please RSVP by JULY 20th. Space is limited and spots will be given on a first-come, first served basis. This event is open to both members and not-yet members. If there is still space available, walk-ups are welcome on the date of the event.
