East Bay Nursery first opened in 1926 as a combination flower stand and retail nursery. In the spring of 1942, Gordon Courtright happened to pass by the nursery and stopped to purchase some flowers for his wife, Addi. Leaving her in the truck, Gordon went in to make his purchase. Upon his return, Gordon, handed his wife the surprise bouquet of flowers and announced to her that he had just purchased East Bay Nursery, to which she responded; "have the price of flowers gone up that much?". The rest, they say, is history. In 1951 Gordon built the 2500 square foot store, with many giggles from other local nursery owners, and the first "self serve" garden center in the nation was born. Gordon worked with the chemical manufacturers and redefined fertilizer and chemical packaging by introducing prepackaging in reasonable sized containers. Simultaneously, Gordon was also working with bedding plant growers designing take-home containers making the garden center that much more convenient for the shopper. Today, his daughter Bea and her husband Don own the nursery with their two sons Rob and Mike ready to take the nursery well into the new century. Armed with one of the most advanced plant labeling and information systems (developed on site) in the country, East Bay Nursery continues to blaze trails.

Berkeley, CA 94706
We moved here from Europe decades ago, and Albany/Berkeley has been our home for 30 years. We are embarking on this venture, not because we are business people (heck, we are career change academics with degrees from Cal ), but because we love our pets. We have four dogs (3 pugs and a dachshund) and a cat who is not totally happy about being so outnumbered. Our store is a true family effort. All our kids are chipping in: Peter is helping us with the business side of things; Jennifer and Alexis, having worked for natural pet food companies for over 8 years, are our consultants; Dylan is painting the store and putting up fixtures; Jonas does the computer and graphic work; and Annie and Katya will be our on-site helpers. And last, but not least, Ruby, our black pug, will be our store mascot. She will be the one languishing on the divan in the shop window - hoping to be petted or fed a treat (she lives for both). Visit us and meet her, because she will be pleased to meet you. We hope to see you at our new store!

Dog Parks & Dog Runs
Canon Drive
Berkeley, CA 94708
One of the District's three oldest parks, Tilden has been called the jewel of the system, and its recreational activities have become a happy tradition for generations of East Bay youngsters. From a carousel ride and a picnic to a swim at Lake Anza and a stroll through the Botanic Garden, Tilden has variety to delight everyone. Yet there are plenty of quiet places in Tilden's 2,079 acres to shelter the wildlife and preserve natural beauty. Tilden was named for Charles Lee Tilden, first president of the Park District Board of Directors. The park is reached via Canon Drive, Shasta Road, or South Park Drive, all off Grizzly Peak Boulevard in Berkeley.

My most favourite pizza ever. Thin, thin crisp yet chewy crust. There is usually a line (fast moving) out the door for lunch, there is ONE pizza a day (vegetarian), I have loved them all. Not for those who want pepperoni! Grab a slice and eat it on the grassy median or take home a 1/2 baked pizza.
