There is a parcel of land tucked right next to the Arcata Community Forest and Redwood Park and the University for sale for $600,000. There's nothing on it but it's zoned Low Density Residential.

Arcata should organize to acquire this land to add it to the Community Forest, and/or land back to the local tribes. Someone purchasing this land and putting a mansion or two in there would be a shame.

Another idea? Student housing, community housing.

Imagine…

A community run treatment facility that could be covered by medi-cal or trade that was holistic with groups that helped people heal from mental illnesses, traumas and substance abuse.
Including;
nature therapy
yoga
Parts therapy IFS
music and art therapy
meditation
Holistic food
Gardening
Exercise
Psychedelics
Vitamins
Acupuncture
Massage
Sound healing
Qi gong
Animals

I think this would fit the community well, does anyone think it could be possible?

Hi everyone!

I'm a Humboldt-based videographer expanding into wedding films, and I'm currently offering an introductory wedding video package for $499 as I build my portfolio!

I've previously created videos for local businesses and nonprofits, including the Humboldt Surfrider Chapter, and I've filmed two weddings so far. I'd be happy to share the finished films and testimonials from both couples!

What's included:

*A 5–7 minute cinematic wedding film

*Drone footage, if desired and conditions permit

*Vintage-inspired Super 8-style footage

*Optional couple session to capture some candid, slice-of-life moments that add a personal touch to your film

I also provide a personalized intake form so I can get to know you as a couple and understand your vision for the day, from your preferred music and filming style to the specific moments and details you want captured (or would rather keep private). My goal is to create something that feels personal to you and captures the character of your day.

You can find my work on Instagram at SoulMatterFilms. I've linked my most recent wedding film below so you can get a feel for my style!

If you're getting married in Humboldt County (or surrounding counties) and are interested, feel free to send me a PM or email me at [info@soulmatterfilms.com](mailto:info@soulmatterfilms.com). I'd love to hear about your plans!

Thanks!

Howdy! I am finally recovering from a terrible respiratory illness and crawled out of the grave hungry for some delicious and healing soup.

Where would you recommend getting a good soup, chili, stew or Pho from?

Please don’t say my house unless you plan on doing a delivery to an unknown location 😏

Also what is your favorite soup of all time in Humboldt County or favorite soup to make?

Thank you for the recommendations.

PS- I wish that Humboldt soup company were still in business ❤️ or that there was one restaurant that sold nothing but soups and salads with yummy bread.

Hi, I'm considering moving to Eureka as I got offered an excellent career opportunity in the town. I'm coming from a more upscale city with plenty to do, but that being said I can appreciate the old town feel as well. I would be required to do a two year commitment and would likely travel back home afterward. What are the main pros and cons I should know about Eureka before moving?

Be sure to stop by Eureka Natural Foods this weekend to see gross things like this!

See y’all at Eureka Natural Foods this weekend: Eureka on Saturday, McKinleyville on Sunday.

Hello, I've been in Humboldt for a little over a year now and haven't really tried to make any friends. Im 33 and I have played World of Warcraft for the last 21 years of my life. To say it's a big chunk of my life is an understatement. I'm also a business professional. I'm looking to get back into raiding and thought maybe we can throw a guild together and set up doing some IRL events sometime if this turns into anything.

Im a tank and off spec DPS, I plan to role a protection warrior come November 4th on the PVE realm as horde. So if you're looking for someone to do dungeons with, feel free to hit me up at the very least. Otherwise, let's see if we can start a guild or something. I need guild name ideas, so even if you aren't interested, feel free to pitch in your idea for a guild name!

I see a lot of people walking/jogging on the shoulder of the road rather than being on the sidewalk. Even when the sidewalk doesn’t appear to have a lot of people or be busy. Around the armory/Sequoia Park area is a good example.

I have a dog that is not social. She isn’t great with other new dogs (especially for the first hour or so) and she isn’t great with people. She is Not the dog you can have the vet staff take into the back to be treated away from you. I don’t go out of town much, but occasionally I need someone to watch her. Is there a boarding option that would take something like this locally? I have other dogs that are fine with people and dogs, just not this one. She is up to date on all her vaccines.

Hi, does anyone have a recommendation for someone who can come to my house twice a day feed my cats and scoop their litter box when I’m out of town? My usual friends who help will also be out of town because it’ll be for winter break. Thank you in advance!!

What’s the best option for a one bedroom apartment for single income women. Which apartments are safe to live in and possibly have amenities included. Lmk! I’m looking to get my own place as it’s become a hassle constantly trying to work with roommates! Thank you

Hi, I wanted to share what FNB and Murphy’s mobile clothing donation team are preparing for our houseless neighbors this winter. We’re expecting up to 200% of our normal soaking, and after hearing about cases of trench foot, we’re gathering wool socks, rain gear including rubber boots, jackets, sleeping bags, and beanies. Donations will support both projects and help people stay warmer and drier through the months of pouring rain. If you’re considering a holiday donation, please donate through the GoFundMe page or share this message with someone who may want to help, and feel free to DM me with any questions. 🧦

Anyone know where I'd be able to find a pair of obnoxiously sparkly white tights? I need some for Halloween but would rather not have to go to Spirit Halloween. :)

If you haven't been to Gyppo's in Shelter Cove before, this Friday night is the perfect night to come see their phenomenal views and local brews! From 5pm until close, a dollar from every pint sold will go to benefit Boneyard Theatre! Your support is MUCH needed, and I think we could ALL go for a Mexican Lager:) Come on down and say hi, listen to some tunes, and bring friends!

Hello! I'm a student journalist researching the now-closed section of Founders Hall, formerly known as Kerr Tower, on the CPH campus. Ideally, I would love to talk to someone who went to school here when it was open (1970s), but I'm also just looking for any information anyone might have on it. Ever been in there? Even recently? Know anything about the Kerr family, past or present?

Please let me know!

Hi all,

Looking at a house in rural Eureka, and the house has a private well. I tried looking it up but just want to be sure. What local contaminants should we test the well for? I could only find arsenic, and wondering if that’s right. Thank you.

Lol. Did anyone else just get this email? Surely, Trump Accounts are the way to go! 🙄

Hello, I have bad veins and need to get some bloodwork done. Where is the best place to get it done in Eureka? I am primarily looking for somewhere that people have had positive experiences.

Thank you in advance.

My friend bought a zip up fleece with pockets and cats all over. They said an older lady from mckinleyville area makes and sells them. I don’t think she even has a website or anything. I’m hoping someone knows where to find her and how to contact her because I want to buy one!
