Bread & Roses friend Rita Abrams is in the news for the 40th Anniversary of the recording of her "Mill Valley" song! Judy Herman, one of the third graders who originally sang with her said "She was all about music and dance and joy" and we couldn't agree more...
Our founder Mimi Fariña was from Mill Valley. Based in Corte Madera since 2000, Bread & Roses' office was located in Mill Valley for 17 years across from the Depot above Strawbridge's stationery store on Throckmorton Ave. We fondly remember our time in Mill Valley "where people aren't afraid to smile and stop and talk to you awhile..." (lyrics from Rita's "Mill Valley" song...) For more information about Rita, see http://www.ritaabrams.com
