This Point Reyes Station gift basket includes gifts or gifts certificates from Bovine Bakery, Coyuchi, Garden of Eden, Leona's, Ernesto Sanchez, Toby's Coffee Bar and Toby's Feed Barn, Vita Collage, Yoga Toes and Zuma, all arranged artfully in a colorful African market masket donated by our friends at Toby's Feed Barn. Plus, K and A Takeaway is Tomales has provided a contribution!

The Bovine Bakery, a from-scratch bakery, established in 1990 and must-visit destination for yummy baked goods, soups and pizza, has gifted our market basket with a $25 gift certificate. The Bovine Bakery was an idea born from a passion and love of food, for feeding others and an essential need to make a living, a concept which has continued to gain momentum for 25 years. 

Coyuchi, where everything is designed to comfort and rejuvenate - body, mind and spirit - and to help you turn your home into a unique and personal sanctuary, has contributed a lovely hand-embroidered gray scarf. Inspired by nature, Coyuchi designs products whose simple style is enriched by subtle textures, rich colors and refined details.

Garden of Eden Apothecary has been mesmerizing patrons for 20 years with organic, ethically wildcrafted and biodynamic offerings. Their shop is a treasure trove filled with botanical gems, divine aromas, colors and healing gifts. Garden of Eden has contributed a pair of healing salves and a refreshing cool mist hydrosol.

Leona's, a shop and art gallery featuring the work of artists local to Marin County, has contributed "Seals on the Beach," a framed Susan Hall print and a $75 gift certificate.

Ernesto Sanchez, a local artist with a mixed media and multicultural work gallery located behind Gallery Route One, has gifted a papier mache red heart surrounded by gold aura and with a red hanging ribbon. Ernesto, a native Californian of Mexican-American heritage, incorporates influences from many cultures throughout the world to make art for the spirit.

Also included is a $15 gift certificate from Toby's Coffee Bar in Point Reyes Station. Toby's Coffee Bar is operated by Osteria Stellina, also in Point Reyes Station, and serves a variety of coffee drinks and teas, as well as delicious baked goods prepared at Stellina. Conveniently located in the historic Toby's Feed Barn, Toby's Coffee Bar is open seven days a week.

Toby's Feed Barn isn't just located in the heart of Point Reyes Station, in many ways it is the heart of Point Reyes. Toby’s is a family-owned and operated general store and working feed barn that has been serving the community since 1942. A long-time supporter of Point Reyes National Seashore Association, Toby's has contributed this market basket and commemorative Toby's tea towel and vintage-style coffee mug.

In addition to offers a range of goods from fresh, local organic produce to gifts, garden supplies, pet food, hay and grain, Toby’s Feed Barn is host to numerous events including author talks, concerts, weddings and fundraisers. It is also home to an art gallery, a coffee bar, a yoga studio, a community garden and a world famous farmer’s market, making Toby’s a vibrant and vital part of the Point Reyes community.
