Grocery Distribution Event for All Households In-Need

Organized by Incarnation Church/Sagrado de Corazon

If you are experiencing, or anticipating, a shortage of grocery staples in the coming week, please know you are invited to participate in the Incarnation/Sagrado de Corazon Grocery Distribution Event this coming Sunday. Intended for low-income households, or those that have difficulties accessing food, there is no cost to participate in this event. Enough groceries will be available to provide food-security for the coming week to 1100 families.

Participants are asked to arrive by car, if possible. Four lanes will be formed and be directed to enter the parking lot from Pleasant Avenue. Boxes of groceries will be placed in your car by volunteers. Each box contains enough calories of food to feed a family of four for an entire week. Much of the food is dried or canned so will be shelf-stable.

Please know that you are welcome to share this information with others in our broader community. Zip codes will be collected at the event to allow for increased food distribution at this location in the coming weeks.

Community volunteers will also be collecting Census information to help attendees complete the forms and avoid a knock on the door by enumerators later this summer. If you speak Spanish and are able to help with Census collection please contact .

If you are interested in supporting this outreach you can make direct financial donations to the Incarnation COVID-19 Food Shelf at this link: http://bit.ly/IncarnationFoodShelf

MNDOT VIRTUAL 35W TOUR

Neighbors, teachers and kids can explore the 35W@94 project corridor through a virtual self-guided tour to learn about the history of I-35W, project benefits and construction features including the huge red water storage tanks being constructed under the road. Be sure to check out the drone flight over the freeway and download the activity book! Start exploring today: Virtual Self-Guided Tour

Also, two interactive virtual events will occur; these events will share preliminary histories about opposition to the freeway, its impacts on communities of color, and concerns over equity and environmental justice. Participants will have an opportunity to ask questions and express interest in sharing their own perspectives and stories.

Who Are the People in Your Neighborhood? Episode 3

A Kingfield Neighbor Interview Series On Zoom. 

In Episode 3, we meet Megan Evans Seeds. Megan manages Hennepin County’s external web presence as the Chief Digital Officer, aiming to provide usable and accessible digital service for residents. She and her husband, Rob, have lived in Kingfield since 2011. They are raising two young daughters who love moving, playing, eating and learning in this wonderful neighborhood.

Interviewer: Jerome Rankine, Editorial Director at Pollen and a Kingfield Neighborhood Association Board Member

We at the Kingfield Neighborhood Association frequently boast about how talented and committed our community is, but when we began talking about all the great things that neighbors are doing, both during the current pandemic and beyond, we realized that you might not know each other as well as we know you. This online series of one-on-one interviews with neighbors is designed to help you get to know your neighbors better, understand what they do, and what drives and fulfils them.
