School’s OUT!

Start summer right! Join fellow neighbors for a delightful evening with music, face painting, crafts and rides for kids. Sebastian Joe‘s ice cream (our very own Kingfield commissary!) will be served free of charge; donations welcomed!

Now almost a decade old, the mission of the MLK Donation Garden is to connect neighbors and grow food for our community. Neighbors and Master Gardeners gather every Tuesday to tend the vegetable gardens on the northern side of the Recreation Center and discuss a weekly topic. The food we grow is donated to The Aliveness Project (located at 3808 Nicollet), but the knowledge you go home with is yours to keep!
