COMMUNITY NEWS & EVENTS
The Peninsula's Oldest Businesses
From the Palo Alto Weekly:

We need your help.

Our editorial team is preparing a special issue, to be published in October in the Palo Alto Weekly, featuring a list and story about the oldest, continuously operating businesses on the Midpeninsula.  

If you have been in business for more than 20 years (but especially if you've been around for much longer) we want to hear from you so you can be included. Believe it or not, no such list seems to exist, and we’re excited about creating one, both for our special issue and future use as a reference tool. 

Please fill out this brief form with the date.your company was founded.

(Note: We will not publish your email address or phone number; but we do need them to allow our reporters to contact you for more information if necessary.)
