Barebottle Brewing Co. is a craft brewery founded in 2016 and rooted in San Francisco's Bernal Heights neighborhood, where its flagship production brewery and taproom occupy a spacious warehouse at 1525 Cortland Ave. The brewery has since expanded across the Bay Area with additional taprooms in Santa Clara, Menlo Park, Walnut Creek, and Salesforce Park in downtown San Francisco. The Bernal Heights location offers seven distinct reservable areas accommodating groups from 20 to 200 guests — from the intimate Parlor to a full taproom buyout. Rotating food truck partners provide catering options on-site, and outside pre-made food is welcome for events hosted at the flagship location. Barebottle takes a community-driven approach to brewing, drawing on local homebrewers and inviting guests to vote on beers before full production. Events at the taproom are complemented by 20–30 rotating beers on draft, wines, kombucha, and house-made non-alcoholic sodas. The space is pet-friendly and open to all ages.

All of the couples meet with the rabbi or cantor of their choosing to discuss the ritual and significance of the construction of a Jewish home in general. No matter what your religious affiliation, our rabbis and cantor are available to officiate at weddings for Jewish and interfaith couples of either gender. Interfaith couples must agree to meet the Temple's requirements for interfaith marriage before the ceremony can take place.

Our facility can accommodate a wide range of private events such as weddings, business events, birthday and bridal showers, bar/bat mitzvahs, conferences, and more. To avoid having to wash dishes at night for her large family or having to eat hamburger helper (her brother's favorite dish to cook), Linda traded dish duties with her siblings for cooking duties, and developed an intense passion for planning menus, creating recipes, and putting on dinners and events for her family of 15 children. Linda is the mother of 15 children. In her adolescence, she could frequently be found in bookshops reading cookbooks, and she had a cherished memory of reading "The French Laundry Cookbook" for the first time from cover to cover when it was originally published. She made the decision to attend a cooking school shortly after, having no idea that it would turn out to be a career choice. Having been born and reared in Argentina to an American father and a French mother, she comes from a diverse background of cultures and experiences, which contributes to the diverse range of flavors she enjoys putting into her dishes. She moved to the Bay Area when she was 17 years old in order to attend culinary school in San Francisco. After stays in New York and Kansas City, she returned to the Bay Area and began performing at some of the city's most prestigious restaurants, including Masa's, Campton Place, The French Laundry, and Michael Mina's, among others.

Shin Dig Sonoma is a 2.5-acre private estate nestled in rural West Petaluma, in the heart of Sonoma County's wine country. Founded by Stephanie and Shlomo Franco — seasoned hospitality professionals who relocated from San Francisco in 2020 — the property was thoughtfully transformed over four years through extensive landscaping and construction: more than 70 trees were relocated, a new pool was built, and a 1,200-square-foot covered pavilion was added, surrounded by over 80 flourishing olive, citrus, fig, and fruit trees. The estate offers four distinct outdoor areas suited for weddings, milestone celebrations, and corporate retreats: an intimate olive grove, a spacious willow lawn adjacent to the pool, an open-air pool deck, and a modern-farmhouse pavilion with a full kitchen. Recent enhancements include a flourishing garden, ADA-accessible pathways, grand staircases, and a fire pit with Adirondack seating. Shin Dig Sonoma combines rustic, chic elegance with thoughtful hospitality, designed for events where guests feel welcomed, celebrated, and inspired against the backdrop of Sonoma's wine country.
