Nonprofit Event Planning & Conference Production

Events with heart & purpose
Homegrown Events provides strategic event planning and production for nonprofits, foundations, social justice organizations and other mission-driven organizations in the San Francisco Bay Area and nationwide.

We work with social change, values-driven organizations to bring their mission and vision to life through strategic events. Not only are our events crafted from the heart, they are professional and tasteful with just the right amount of polish. We approach each event knowing that each organization has unique values and a distinct culture which we integrate into each step of the process--from initial strategic planning to event-day execution to post-event follow-up. 

We focus on the nitty gritty so you don't have to.

What we believe:

• No event is the same. All events will reflect the unique values, vision, and culture of each client.
• "Leave no trace." We live in an environment with limited natural resources. Every event will be planned with the least amount of impact possible. (We are trained in SF's Zero Waste laws!)
• Budgets vary but our commitment to quality doesn't waver. We are exceptional at leveraging the resources and assets of our clients to produce an effective event within budget.
• Local first. We are a small business and are committed to supporting other"homegrown" businesses that focus more on just the bottom line, including people of color-owned companies and cooperatives, whenever possible.
• Events leave a lasting impression, so they should be fun, engaging, and unforgettable.
