Church of the Good Earth 1963 and Beyond

To any folks who drop in here just to read and see what's up, the Church of the Good Earth is currently holding a General Meeting for the purpose of officially filing with a state to incorporate as an actual nonprofit incorporated church.

We use to be back in '73. But that did fall apart. We've always stayed together as a group and also as a church. Some of us.

Once we get this accomplished, we hope to be expanding. You can check in here and see what's up. It just might be getting real once again.

Stay Tuned.

Good Morning Y'all,

I was up way to early this morning so, I was looking around at all the GE stuff on google.

This was way cool so I thought I would share

David Talbot is talking about his resent Book, Season Of The Witch, which we, The Good Earthers have a whole chapter in.

What aspects of San Francisco’s history did you most enjoy researching while writing this book?
I loved rediscovering long-forgotten shooting stars like Moby Grape, which—until its members succumbed to drugs and various other demons—had the potential to become the greatest San Francisco rock band of all, soaring higher at times than the Jefferson Airplane and the Grateful Dead. I also was delighted to discover the Good Earth commune, a sprawling network of hippie houses in the Haight-Ashbury—made up of tough ex-cons, Vietnam veterans and street runaways—that fought to save that essential San Francisco neighborhood from heroin dealers, rogue cops and the wrecking balls of the city’s redevelopment agency. These unsung musicians and street heroes are the ones who made San Francisco what it is today—an oasis of beauty and creativity that still beckons to young pioneers everywhere.

What misconceptions about the San Francisco of both yesterday and today warrant clearing up?
San Francisco was, and is, a much tougher town than people imagine. And San Francisco values were not born with flowers in their hair, but howling, in blood and strife.
