Thank you to everyone who attend and helped clean up Kingfield. We counted over 120 volunteers who came to MLK Park to help out on April 19. That’s A LOT of trash and recycling we were able to collect. Thank you to the City of Minneapolis for doing extra pickups, and our friends at Spirit Garage for hosting a BBQ for our generous volunteers.
We hope to make neighborhood cleanups happen more frequently. Please reach out to if you are interested in organizing or participating.

Tackle Hunger: Attend the 14th Annual Empty Bowls Meal
Empty Bowls brings our community together every “SOUPer Bowl Sunday” to raise funds for local nonprofits while sharing a meal of soup, bread, and dessert donated by local restaurants. For a suggested donation of $25 you select a handmade bowl donated by local artists to eat out of and then take home.
This year’s event will be held on Sunday, February 9 at Judson Church, 4101 Harriet Ave, from 10 AM – 2 PM. This communal meal raises funds for affordable housing and hunger-solution work in our community. [Read more…]
