Join us for our next Work + Fun Day!

We host Work + Fun Days on the last Saturday of every month. Get a chance to tour our new 1.3 acre location, meet fellow Tablemates, and help get the site closer to Opening Day-ready!
Since a lot of construction is taking place at the site, we ask that you wear sturdy shoes, clothes you don’t mind getting dirty, and a face mask for dust and covid protection. Plus, don’t forget to bring your favorite gardening gloves and tools if you want to get down and dirty with us!

The Good Table is possible because of the many hands, minds, and hearts that have gone into the project. We want to highlight their contributions through our video series, Meet Your Tablemates. Let’s meet one of them today!
Soheila Bana is a Good Table volunteer and the founder of 94803 Emergency Preparedness Alliance. She's an incredible resource for our project, and we're happy to have her! Watch the video below to learn why she joined the Good table cause.
