Boomerang Bags November Kingfield Sewing Bee

Kingfield Boomerang Bags, boldly working to stop plastic bag use, one shopper at a time!

Facebook Event Page

Come join us at our monthly sewing bee at our new hub at 3700 Nicollet; Butter Bakery Cafe has also signed up as a Boomerang partner and we gave them our first 12 reusable tote bags for customers to use when they have large to-go orders, especially useful in the coming season for holiday pies and treats!

The format will be causal, so drop in for as much time as you have free. Bring your own machine if you are a sewer, or just show up and help iron, cut, and pin. There will be host each month to help you start the bag-making process and get oriented to a task.

All levels of participation are welcomed, and we look forward to connecting with each other and sharing conversations about how we can all leave a lighter footprint on this beautiful earth!

Join the Kingfield Boomerang Bag Group here!

Boots to the Ground: 365 Days of Action until the 2020 Election!

Did you know that Minnesotan’s have an extra election date this year, on March 3rd? Lots of people don’t realize that in 2016, legislation was passed establishing a presidential nomination primary. With three full elections in 2020 we will need more election judges, more pressure on employers to declare election days as holidays, and more people working to educate others about early voting options and to get your neighbors out to vote (even if there is snow on the ground on March 3rd!)

Kingfielders, come get engaged! Live or work in a different neighborhood? You’re welcome too, as we would love to talk with you about kicking off your own GOTV effort!

Join KFNA at Harriet’s on Sunday and learn more about how you can help inform your neighbors of this change and additional voting opportunity!KFNA’s GOTV (Get Out the Vote) team will buy you a soda or a beer and talk with you about your commitment to action as a GOTV Block Captain, Election Judge, Voting Booth Host, GOTV Yard Sign Distributor, or a variety of other efforts coordinated by community partners.
