Come enjoy a four course dinner prepared by Community Garden coordinator, Kingfield resident, Butter Bakery Cafe’s bakery manager and lover of a good meal, Suzie Lillyblad. She will be joined in preparing the meal, by a group of food-loving community gardeners. This serene outdoor venue gives guests the unique experience of dinning in the beautiful surroundings of the KFNA’s Pleasant Community Garden.
This is a truly local meal, with some ingredients supplied by vendors at the Kingfield Farmers Market and others that have been grown in Suzie’s community garden plot. Where else can you dine right next to where the ingredients are grown and harvested?
Airplane Noise Bothering You?
The MAC Noise Program Office sponsors quarterly MSP Noise Public Input Meetings for residents to receive updates on the MSP Noise Oversight Committee (NOC) and its activities, to be briefed on MSP operational levels and procedures, and to have an opportunity to provide comments and voice concerns about aircraft noise issues. During Public Input Meetings, attendees are welcome to make comments or ask questions on the record. In order to facilitate the meeting process, we encourage anyone planning to attend a Public Input Meeting to use the Public Input Meeting Form to submit their comments or questions in advance. Comments or questions raised during the meeting, and those received prior to the meeting, will be answered in writing after the meeting.
