We are grateful to be a part of this very important project highlighting Ohlone culture is not just alive (like it always has been) but it is growing and thriving.

In fact, on the other 2 out of 4 sides of the redwood block Vincent is holding is the name of Amaya Ruano -- the youngest speaker of

Beautifully crafted by Steve of a local woodworker.

Fun fact about this piece: our client works in manufacturing at a large tech company here in the Bay Area -- so they designed a special hinge. This has a "waterfall table leaf" -- there is a hinge mechanism so the waterfall can act as a table leaf to fit an additional 3 chairs.

This space is going to be beautiful, it is coming together piece by piece -- and stone by stone.

In this photo you see the Ramada structure envisioned by Vincent & Louis, designed by Terremoto, made of and assembled by Arriaga Masonry.

There are so many others who have been part of this project and evolving story, if we forgot to tag you please post in the comments.

Please come join our friends when the space opens in June to learn more about the Ohlone -- the native peoples of this land we now call the today.

In our friends say: horše ta-mak 'amma -- the food is good.

We are excited for our friends vision to come to life and our opportunity to be a part of it.

Indeed we hope this will bring the Ohlone one step closer to becoming as their culture continues to grow and thrive today like it always has and always will.

with a simple defect -- a tree branch (knot) and a on the right side.

What is unique about this snapshot in time is how the vertical grain (consistent with the quartersawn cut from the sawmill) is interrupted by the tree branch.

On the lefthand side you can see how the grains (growth rings representing each rain year of the living tree) were distorted by the by the tree branch.

Since we're getting technical, the light grayish color around the knot is actually -- this will became gray-black when finished.

Will anyone be able to find this piece at / 🤔?

Many hands make light work.

Here you see the crew from Arriaga Masonry including Cesar (on the trailer) with Julio (left) and Hilberto (right) loading a 4x4 onto the trailer.

All of this was designed and selected by the extremely dedicated and talented team of -- including , Alain, Story, Dana, Sarah, and many more.

Soon all of this material will be installed at the of Anthropology on the campus for a very important project: by -- the first restaurant in the world on native

Vincent & Louis vision -- mak-huššištak -- is to:
"Work towards the restoration of Ohlone Indian culinary traditions as a part of the larger, ongoing effort that empowers with our rich cultural identity.

In order to create food that is truly Ohlone and representative of the values our traditional cuisine upholds we reconnect with specific food traditions of our community, both ones that are practiced by elders in our families, as well as restoring older food traditions that are preserved in ethnographic documentation recorded by our communities in 1920s and 1930s. Through these methods, we are able to restore food traditions and bring these values and foods back into our daily lives and homes."

Note: these are Vincent and Louis' words from their website -- to learn more visit the link below. makamham.com/valuesandvision

Vincent & Louis' vision and story -- to bring more awareness to Ohlone peoples, culture, and cuisine -- is only just beginning and we are grateful for the opportunity to help turn this idea into reality with so many other supporters. Big thanks to who coordinates so much behind the scenes.

Wondering what you can do to support Cafe Ohlone?

First, check out makamham.com/supportus or makamham.com/blog to learn more about what is going on.

More generally though: always talk about Ohlone in the present tense -- these are the first peoples to live here in what we now call the and have been living here for thousands of years.

Today the came by and collected the off cuts we produce from milling -- of the 300 logs we took in last year, this pile represents "the waste" generated by the we've diverted from the urban -- we've found a way to recycle 100% of the logs we take in.

Diego of introduced us to Richard of NJA Architecture] -- turns out both firms are working on a project for in the same canyon our log recycling yard is in.

Smaller world: Amos of For Humanity who we worked with to plant 150 redwood trees in Richmond introduced us to Elizabeth .symbiotic who we then saw on a tour of the Zoho project. Shout out to Danner of School of Business who organized the tree planting event and made intro to Amos.
