Come Cowork with me at Trellis. We can be Coworkers!

The Bay's best newsletter for underground events & news

This is from back when it was called Covo and I used to cowork there.

Full Disclosure: This is a part of a trade I’m doing with Trellis. That said, I’ve been friends with the founders for 15+ years and I believe in what they are doing. And, I was a member of their last coworking place too.  


I never thought I’d say this, but I’ve never been more excited to put on pants and work from someplace that’s not my home. And that is saying A LOT considering I’ve been working from home for over a decade.

I don’t know about you, but I feel a lot of really positive energy returning to this fantastic city as more and more people get their vaccinations. A lot of people left, rents got cheaper, and now there is more space for the creative folks and artists. We have 2,000 dining parklets and another 1,000 in the pipeline. I can feel people itching to get out of their houses and make genuine, IRL, non-Zoom eye contact with friends and strangers!

To that end, on May 1st, my favorite coworking folks at Trellis (formerly known as Covo) are officially launching their flagship SOMA workspace. This space is gorgeous, with high ceilings, exposed brick, beautiful ergonomic furniture, delightful staff, and of course, fast-flying internet. If you haven’t been, book a sneak peak tour with their fully vaccinated staff.

Once I’m fully vaccinated I’ll be working out of Trellis a few times a month and it would be great to see other rad people like you who can work from home, but don’t want to be in their apartments all day.

The good folks at Trellis used the last several months to implement health, safety, and wellness protocols, upgrade their bike room, and generally get the space into tip-top shape in preparation for y’all to get out of the house and come work safely. All are welcome! With a queer, POC, and female founding team, Trellis embodies the diversity and inclusion that’s at the heart of San Francisco. Everyone, regardless of color, gender, lifestyle, or creed belongs at Trellis, where ideas grow and humans flourish (See what I did there? Things grow and flourish on a trellis, things like you and your business!)

As friends of Broke-Ass Stuart, Trellis is extending us their Founding Member deal. You will receive a free month ($440 value) when you commit to three months. This offer is limited to 25 badass individuals and I strongly encourage you to apply! You can also reach out to the crew at Trellis directly at info@trellis.social and tell them Stu sent you.

Let’s get back out there and make shit happen!
