According to Moonalice legend, San Rafael was founded as the 20th Spanish mission in California. In a brilliant stroke of foresight, they named the mission - and the town - after the patron saint of healing, anticipating by 200 years, San Rafael's emergence as the spiritual home of the most important healing product known to man. I am speaking, of course, of the magical, seedless fruit of the bud known to us as hemp. Even before the Spanish arrived, the Moonalice and Coast Miwok's tilled the soil here, creating an herbal tradition that baffled the Spanish missionaries, but works really well for us.
