NNO Party Registration Deadline Approaching AND a Special Offer from KFNA!

By

You can register an NNO event and apply to close a street/alley in a single online process. If you register by July 24 it is free. 

Even if you don’t want to block your street off, register your event so City Teams can visit your event and so the KFNA Board can buy enough ice cream and mobilize our volunteers to visit every Kingfield Block Party!

Added bonus this year for Block Party Hosts!  Get a FREE compostable picnic-ware Party Pack (plates, forks, napkins, and ice tea cups) for 20 neighbors for your party! (Note: the person emailing for the Party Pack MUST match the City listing of the person that registered the block party for their block!)

Just email info@kingfield.org with “Compost Party Pack” in the subject line and include your name, address, email address, block that the party will cover, and best phone number in the body of the email and we will send you a coupon to pick up your free compostable party kit!

Still four open seats on Community Bus Tour to local Compost Facility 5/19!

By

The tour is entirely outside, and will last approximately 45 minutes. It is important to dress appropriately. We recommend clothing to allow confort in the outdoors, and rain boots or old shoes that can get dirty. Conditions can be muddy or dusty depending on the weather. Anyone who is sensitive to dust or who has physical limitations with walking on uneven surfaces should keep this in mind. Hard hats will be provided, safety vests and safety glasses for all.

Tour participants will see firsthand how food waste and yard waste are turned into environmentally beneficial compost. They will get an up close look at the equipment in operation and a detailed explanation of the process from start to finish. Questions are encouraged.
