Big Sur Community Market

Vanessa Share made up a flyer for this post, but unfortunately, I couldn’t see it or even download it from my email program. Probably on my end, not her’s, but in any event, I took a screen shot from her FB page. It doesn’t say, but usually these take place at the Loma Vista Gardens, 1-6 pm, weather permitting, next door to the Big Sur Bakery.

Big Sur Health Center Fair

And Phillip Geiger of Legal Services for Seniors wanted me to add this: ” LSS we will offer general, non-client confidential, information (free advise) at the health fair. We will also talk about our no-cost legal representation for seniors (age 60 years and older), how seniors can make an appointment to see us and our plans, if funded to help all fire victims.” (Ed. Note – That last is regardless of age, but will depend on obtaining grant funding.)

As a nonprofit health-care facility since 1979, the Big Sur Health Center provides quality acute and preventive health care services that are culturally and linguistically appropriate, and cost-effective. It is the Health Center’s quest to be a lifelong healthcare partner and provide care when needed.

• a team that understands and embraces the diverse cultures and age groups that contribute to the richness of the Big Sur community;
The BSHC believes that health care should be available to everyone … and that is why they accept most major insurance plans, including Medicare and Medical, and participate in a variety of subsidized and sliding-scale programs.
