Seed of Life Skateboard Company was built from the ground up. Literally, Monkey began to fall in love with the idea of bringing people together while he was hitting the pavement and slapping crusty curbs. He noticed how the community in Bend, Oregon was lacking something real. A skate family that supported one another. Andre and Sarah have watched Bend change immensely, because they're LOCALS. They built a place where anybody was aloud to ask questions, have genuine conversations , learn a thing or two, lend a helping hand, enjoy the days with good company, and feel safe and comfortable. @solsk8s Is the truest, most welcoming shop I've ever visited. They care about locals and their children, because Andre is a wonderful father and a family man. Any kid that steps through there doors is welcomed with a warm smile and the option to skate a local volunteer built park out back; The community has donated because they saw how much SOLSK8S was making a difference. (Thank you @parrlumberco and @greenleafgardencenter for donating materials we needed for the time being! Thankful for your local love) They never bothered anybody, or caused any harm. @diycave @cityofbendoregon You're tearing down a loved location to so many in this town, however I know Andre and Sarah will always make a difference. They have too much love in their souls for this community, to be broken that easily. Just know how much you've broken our hearts by shutting them down and out of a place they've watched change and grow in to something beautiful. I wish the Mayor and Commissioner would see our pleas and reconsider what they're doing to this local gem. On the other note, please visit SOLSK8S before they're absurdly kicked out of a place many called home and there own. #lovelocal #appreciateeveryday #begrateful #enjoylittlethings #showkindness #sothankful #wholeheartedsouls #solsk8s #familyownedandoperated #skaterownedandoperated #crustycurbs #perfectlyimperfect #eternallove #skateordie #diy #gohometowashington #Bendwantslocalthatcare (at Seed of Life Skateboard Company "Solsk8s")
