EcoCenter At Heron’s Head Park

Gorgeous park, great dog area, sunshine, bbq areas and picnic tables, salt marsh, not a hint of traffic noise, mini kitchen and wifi?
I love how no one knows about this PUBLIC BUILDING.
Shhhhhhhh.

I went to a conference at the EcoCenter — I left very inspired. The center is a great example of what community ingenuity can do! and that we can be so much more environmentally conscious in our day to day living. I will definitely be back! I want to shop at their native plant nursery for plants for my home — and plan to hold our staff retreat there this year.
Thank you EcoCenter

I recently held my birthday party here on a Saturday afternoon with about 30 guests, and we had a great ol’ time!
Good venue for meetings, small events/​parties, fundraisers, workshops
Features:
— Off-​the-​grid building completely solar powered (have a green, carbon neutral party!)
— Capacity (I think) is 52
— Two bathrooms
— Open, bright main space
— Wireless access
— ADA Accessible
— Large level patio that can be tented
— AMAZING views of the bay on the sunny side of town
— Walk right out into a city park with native plants and wildlife
— PLENTY of parking
— Dogs allowed in park on leash at all times
— Cool living roof and only living machine/​interior wetland cell in SF
Things to consider:
— No kitchen, so best if you bring in all your own food
— Muni lines 19 and 44 get within a few blocks, and T-​line stop is about ¾ of a mile but not near BART
— Probably not good if you need a lot of electricity like say powering lots of high wattage equipment
