Native Here Nursery is a non-profit nursery dedicated to growing plants for restoration of open spaces and gardening projects. All of our plants are “locally native,” grown from seed and cuttings collected in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties. We are open year-round for retail, contract, and wholesale business. The nursery is dependent on the dedication and hard work of volunteers. There are volunteer opportunities for a wide range of interest and experience. We have section tenders who hand-water and care for sections within the nursery. We have seedling propagators who pot-up on Friday mornings - giving the little ones a good shot at growing up. There are also a variety of upkeep and improvement tasks, such as sprucing plants, raking leaves, repairing benches, maintenance and building of infrastructure, etc. Native Here is a project of the California Native Plant Society East Bay Chapter, which is a 501(c)(3) organization. Due to being primarily volunteer operated, we are open limited hours year-round: Tuesdays: noon - 3 pm, Fridays: 9 am - noon, Saturdays: 10 am - 2 pm

Native Network believes that the path to self-determination for Native American Tribes is through control of telecommunications and technology. We help tribes leverage telecommunications systems and services to ensure economic vitality and diversity of their respective communities—enhancing educational, healthcare and business opportunities. Our vision is to build a telecommunications network that connects all the tribes of the United States—a modern network that mirrors historic trade routes. In America’s pre-European history, indigenous people were connected by a sophisticated structure of routes that not only encouraged trade, but also promoted cooperation and prosperity. Using historic trade routes as a model, and modern technology as a means, we create a new age of prosperity for participating tribes and their communities. Native Network understands telecom challenges in rural communities. Our team built the first cellular system in North Eastern Washington, branded as Cellular One. We built the first competitive telephone company delivering dial up Internet and phone service to remote cities in Washington, Idaho and Oregon. We’ve also engineered, designed, implemented and supported both rural and urban competitive wireless and wireline carriers with broadband and telecom infrastructure deployment. Our team has 75+ years of experience in telecommunications, technology, operations, management, and consulting. Our focus is bridging the digital divide in rural and underserved markets, but we have a wealth of experience working in metropolitan and global markets as well. We have a variety of offerings to assist tribes with their technology planning and development in their journey to telecom independence. • Feasibility studies • Development of a tribal branded mobile phone service • Engineering, design, equipment selection & sales • Data center design & execution • Various professional services
