Kapwa Gardens:

Kapwa Gardens (www.kapwagardens.com) is a healing space in SOMA Pilipinas. As a Kultivate Labs* project, the space functions with the goal to enrich San Francisco's cultural diversity by building community and supporting the arts & local businesses. Kapwa Gardens is designed and named after the Filipino spiritual idea of "Kapwa"—a recognition of a shared identity, an inner self, shared with others.

The gardens feature custom living walls, a citrus grove of calamansi trees, hand-crafted wood planters, and beautiful murals painted by local Bay Area artists. Kapwa Gardens also has a flexible outdoor event space with the capability to host workout classes, live performances, special events, and more!
